Lebron in miami, but not a ’canes fan quite yet

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — LeBron James didn’t change all his teams this summer.

James posted on his Twitter feed Thursday that he’s considering going to Columbus, Ohio, on Sept. 11 to see the matchup between No. 2 Ohio State — his longtime team of choice — and No. 13 Miami.

And no, the former Cleveland Cavaliers star isn’t rooting for the Hurricanes. The NBA’s two-time reigning MVP wrote, “O-State will prevail for sure. Will be exciting!”

James worked out with the Hurricanes’ basketball team twice last week. He has an invitation to join Miami for any of its football games this season.
