LeBron James didn't make a decision Thursday, but he did return to Miami early Friday morning, flying from Las Vegas where he had been holding business meetings and attending his annual basketball camp. And he had a traveling companion: Dwyane Wade.
Yahoo Sports was first to report:
Dwyane Wade expected to be on a flight back to Miami with LeBron James tonight, league sources told Yahoo. They had been together in Vegas.

And then via Hot Hot Hoops comes this local TV video of James and Wade at the Miami airport. Congratulations, Miami, you've joined Cleveland in stalking airplanes at airports.
Truly, riveting stuff.
So James spent the entire week thinking about a decision, had reportedly made up his mind, then flies back to Florida after he and Wade had hung out for most of the week in Vegas, and Wade was likely the last basketball person he spoke with in-person before leaving for the World Cup. Interesting.
Regardless of how this whole thing ends up, as of Friday morning, the twists and turns continue on the LeBron James Decision 2.0 rollercoaster.
