NBA franchises hoping to sign LeBron James this summer are being told to leave voice notes instead of speaking with him directly, according to a July 9, 2026 report.
The New York Post story states that teams pursuing the free-agent star have been instructed to record audio pitches, which are then passed along to James. No live phone conversations or in-person meetings were described as part of the process.
The report did not indicate how quickly the four-time champion or his representatives respond to the messages, nor did it outline any timetable for a decision on his next team.
This free-agency cycle marks another high-profile market for James, who remains one of the most sought-after players in the league.
