Former NFL Star Chris Johnson Reveals ALS Diagnosis + Should LeBron James And The Lakers Stay Together?

from The Best of the Sports Shop

Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss Chris Johnson's ALS diagnosis and the sports world's reaction, as well as if LeBron should leave the Lakers for Golden State. Former star running back Chris "CJ2k" Johnson revealed yesterday that he has ALS and the disease had quickly progressed. Johnson divulged the information on 'Good Morning America'. How did this happen? Yesterday, Draymond Green declined his nearly $28M player option for the 2026-27 season with the Warriors and will become a free agent. Green is expected to sign a multi-year deal with the Warriors at a smaller number to help the Warriors with roster construction flexbility. Green's financial decision to take a paycut is likely so the Warriors can continue with their pursuit for Lebron. If this happens, will the Warriors also trade for Anthony Davis, as it's been rumored that Lebron will only join the Warriors if Anthony Davis joins. Is LeBron headed to the Warriors? Should LeBron leave LA?
