LeBron James Trains with Dwyane Wade in Miami; Should the Cleveland Cavaliers Be Worried?
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are sitting pretty atop the Eastern Conference standings with a 42-17 record. After a 100-96 win over the Indiana Pacers on Feb. 29, the players were given two days off by head coach Tyronn Lue.
Technically, James will spend some time with his family in Cleveland, right? Well, the answer is yes, but not just in his hometown. According to ESPN, "King James" brought his family to Miami and visited his good friend and former Heat teammate, Dwyane Wade.
The duo also trained in the same gym under David Alexander, who James works out with during the offseason. You can watch the video proof below.

Should Cavaliers Fans Be Worried? Be happy Cavs fans because the answer is no. Apparently the Cleveland coaching staff and front office executives knew that their superstar forward will be spending his days off in Miami. ESPN also notes that they have been okay with James visiting South Beach since last season.
James was in Miami with "The Flash" last season while recuperating from his back and knee injuries. The 31-year-old also spends his time at Wade's home every time the Cavaliers visit the Heat during the season.
"Obviously, when LeBron takes his time away the sun is a nice place to come to get away for a couple of days when your coach and your organization allow you to get away and clear your mind," Wade told the Miami media on Wednesday as quoted by ESPN.
The Heat guard added that people should not be surprised if they see him and James work out in the same gym. Wade reminded everyone that "The King" is one of his best friends.
Tension in Cleveland
A couple of days after Stephen A. Smith mentioned on "First Take" that Kyrie Irving wants out of Cleveland, James posted a cryptic tweet.
"The King" wrote on Twitter, "It's ok to know you've made a mistake. Cause we all do at times. Just be ready to live with whatever that comes with it and be with those who will protect you at all cost!"
The New York Post tried to crack the mystery of James' tweet, coming up with four possible culprits: Irving, Kevin Love, coach Lue and Smith. Irving is reportedly unhappy while Love and James have not clicked since the power forward arrived from Minnesota in 2014.
The four-time MVP could also be pointing towards his head coach as the Cavaliers have not found the consistency they want. Lastly, the two-time NBA champion might be annoyed at Smith for reporting something that can cause tension to his team.
The Cavaliers will be back in action on Friday when they host the Washington Wizards.
