Report: Cleveland Cavaliers Attempting To Prove Miami Heat Tampered In Recruiting LeBron James

If the league does find evidence of tampering, the Heat could be fined and lose draft picks as compensation to the Cavaliers. Wojnarowski also suggests members of Miami’s front office found to be complicit in the tampering could be suspended. Obviously, the Heat couldn’t be forced to send LeBron back to Cleveland, nor would his Heat contract be torn up.

Wojnarowski has been highly critical of LeBron and his right-hand man, Maverick Carter. Thursday marks LeBron’s first game back in Cleveland as a member of the Heat.
