LeBron James returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers for a third time remains the "scenario to beat," according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line.

Despite the Cavs being the supposed leader in the race, the Warriors still continue to pursue James.

Draymond Green said on Monday that he has spent the last few days recruiting James.

The Heat and Sixers are also continuing to recruit James, with Wolves head coach Chris Finch saying he believes his team are still in the running.

It was also reported on Monday that James is getting closer to making a decision.
