The Los Angeles Lakers are officially transitioning to the Luka Doncic era, as LeBron James is set to leave the team this offseason. James is not retiring, but he is set to play for a different team during the 2026-27 NBA season. While James is being linked to teams such as the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers , the MLB world is already making jokes about James signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
There are many other jokes and memes swirling around the social media world. Of course, the Dodgers have not been shy about spending money in free agency in recent years. Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Blake Snell, Roki Sasaki and Kyle Tucker are among the stars the two-time defending World Series champions have signed within the past five seasons.

As for who LeBron will realistically sign with, the Warriors and Cavs do seem to be the most mentioned teams. James, of course, began his NBA career in his home state of Ohio with the Cavaliers. He later left and signed with the Miami Heat but ultimately returned and led the Cavs to their first championship.
Joining the Warriors would give LeBron an opportunity to play alongside stars he has gone head-to-head with for years such as Stephen Curry and Draymond Green . Joining Golden State may not present him with the best opportunity to win a championship next season, though.
One has to imagine other teams will display interest in signing him as well. It just won't be the Dodgers (although, with the way they have spent money in recent seasons… Who knows!).
