LeBron James Switching Jersey Number from No. 23 back to No. 6!
No, this has nothing to do with Pat Riley's recent offer of a "shiny new key" to return to the Miami Heat, but according to Shams Charania, LA Lakers superstar LeBron James has decided to switch his jersey number back to the No. 6 that he wore during his days with the Heat.
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is changing his jersey number from No. 23 to No. 6 next season, sources tell me and @tim_cato. Anthony Davis is expected to remain No. 3.https://t.co/GyQy5s9bVu

Rather, it's more of a marketing move, to coincide with the Number 6 that LeBron wears in his new movie coming out this summer, Space Jam: A New Legacy.
