According to reports, the Heat later responded by saying the listing was posted in error by their social media team while preparing for the possibility of a LeBron James signing.
Adding to the uncertainty, LeBron’s agent, Rich Paul, said there is no timetable for the four-time NBA champion’s free agency decision. Speaking on the Game Over Podcast, Paul emphasized that James will not rush the process.
“We’re not going to be rushed,” Paul said. “He has a choice to make. He has a business choice to make. I don’t know when his choice is going to be made. It could be 48 seconds from now. It could be 48 minutes. I don’t know.”
For now, LeBron’s next move remains unknown as speculation continues around his free agency.
