We're about nine hours away from the start of the NBA free agency, fans and all of NBA Twitter are on edge for rumors and speculation as to where Clevaland Cavaliers star LeBron James will go. Fortunately, there have been breaks in the investigation.
On Saturday morning, Twitter users discovered that there was a single flight scheduled to fly in from Anguilla to Van Nuys airport in Los Angeles. Anguilla is the place that LeBron James and his family have been vacationing over the last week, and James lives in LA, so it wouldn't be surprising if true.

This helicopter has been waiting for LeBron presumably for the last 20 minutes. The only thing he’s seen so far is me devouring my Animal Fries. pic.twitter.com/VgRbixzvbE

At about 11:30AM, when James was set to land, fans gathered around the airport and discovered that James did indeed arrive and left in a black SUV.

LeBron is in Los Angeles apparently. (I was told he was in this car leaving Van Nuys Airport.) Now we wait on his decision. pic.twitter.com/edDnZGMGO1

James is likely headed to his Brentwood home not far from UCLA, and he'll likely prepare to have his free agency meetings, if any, with his camp over the next several days. As of Saturday morning, James has been reportedly leaning towards heading to the West coast and joining the Lakers.
