CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — LeBron James’ first training camp with the Miami Heat has arrived.
Joined by Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, the two-time NBA MVP spoke Monday on the eve of his first practice with his new club, and says the Heat “will let our game do the talking.”
James signed a $109.8 million, six-year deal with Miami on July 9, one day after starring in an hourlong TV special to announce he was leaving Cleveland. There has been constant outcry since — Cavs owner Dan Gilbert called James a quitter, rivals questioned his competitiveness, and Dallas owner Mark Cuban said James executed “the largest public humiliation in the history of sports.”
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra says James is “a motivated player right now.”
