    It's always special when LeBron James returns to Northeast Ohio to play against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

    You never know how many more times he'll play basketball near his hometown of Akron.

    James will be back at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse tonight when his Lakers take on the surging, undefeated Cavs.

    For James it will be a little more special. His son Bronny James is still on the Lakers' roster as his move to the G League looms.

    What's more, it's a showdown between two teams that got off to a fast start in the 2024-25 season. The Cavs enter the game as one of the only undefeated teams in the Eastern Conference – the other being the world champion Boston Celtics. The Lakers come to Cleveland 3-1 this season after losing 109-105 to the Phoenix Suns on Monday night.
