LeBron James Lakers move not as shocking as THIS deal - Cavaliers star Larry Nance Jr

James called time on his second spell with his home state team earlier this summer in free agency.

And he left the Eastern Conference altogether by heading to California with Luke Walton’s Lakers.

LeBron James’ switch came as Ronaldo left Real Madrid for Juventus after nine years at the Bernabeu.

Both deals came as something of a surprise to basketball and football fans alike.
