CLEVELAND - LeBron James is leaving home for Hollywood and an iconic team.
The four-time NBA MVP announced on Sunday night that he has agreed to a four-year, $154 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, joining one of the league's most storied franchises and switching conferences to try to dethrone the Golden State Warriors and grow his own legacy.
For the second time in his career, James is saying goodbye to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who drafted the teenage sensation from Akron in 2003 but now have to be satisfied with just one title in the 11 years they had him.
