LeBron James Back In Cleveland One Day? King Gets Locker At Ohio State From Buckeyes

Sep 13, 2013 10:56 AM EDT

Miami Heat superstar LeBron James has had to deal with tons of questions about his possible impending free agency this coming offseason and while the MVP forward has plenty of things to think about, one thing he won't is where he can work out while at home, as Ohio State has given him a permanent locker.

According to ESPN.com, James was given his own permanent locker at the Ohio State campus in the locker room of the basketball team and it will include Nike clothing with the LeBron brand. The report says that James was previously made an honorary member of the basketball team a few years ago when he was still with the Cleveland Cavaliers and of course Ohio is the home state of King James.

This offseason James has been dealing with questions about the possibility that he will be a free agent next summer, but he has been steadfast in saying that he has not even thought about it. James is coming off of his second straight championship and another MVP award and many have speculated that he will re-sign with the Miami Heat, while others have postulated that he could become a free agent and sign with someone like the Los Angeles Lakers of the NY Knicks.

James is a fan of the Buckeyes and coach Thad Matta said that the team will use the locker with his branded clothing to help with recruiting and the team has been using his official equipment since back in 2007 and the team has had a sustained run of success in that time. James obviously never played in college, but that hasn't stopped him from being the best player in the NBA since coming out of high school and he will be going for his third straight championship with the Miami Heat.
