Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James was evaluating his options during the 2011 NBA lockout, and one of those plans would have involved playing in the NFL as the association resolved its labor issue.
In a recent interview with The Athletic via Kevin Patra of NFL.com, the four-time NBA champion revealed which three NFL teams he considered playing for if the opportunity presented itself. At 6-9, 250 pounds, and at 26 years old back in 2011, James would have been a force as a pass-catching tight end.
