P.J. Tucker weighed in on where he thinks LeBron James will land this offseason.
Tucker made a guest appearance on the “Club 520” podcast this past weekend at Fanatics Fest and said he believes James will be going to Golden State, alongside his former teammate, Anthony Davis.
“I got him going to Golden State,” Tucker said during the live show. “LeBron to Golden State is going to be tough.”
Tucker went on to say that after the Warriors potentially land James, they would go ahead and trade for Davis.

Before James officially hit the open market for the first time in eight years, rumors circulated throughout the NBA landscape that he was interested in joining the Golden State Warriors.
In the past, James has raved about playing alongside Steph Curry during the 2024 Summer Olympics, as he called it one of the best experiences he’s had in basketball.
During the semifinal and gold medal game, Curry was on fire, nailing 16 of 26 three-pointers, and finished the tournament shooting 47.8% from the three-point range.
On the Warriors’ wishlist this offseason, it includes pairing James alongside Davis, as the two were former Los Angeles Lakers teammates from 2019-2026.
In 2020, James and Davis worked hand in hand in helping deliver the Lakers their 17 Championship in franchise history.
The Warriors are likely hoping that James and Davis still have some juice left in the tank to help them win one more title before Curry retires.
Both James and Curry are nearing the tail end of their careers and are both looking to get their fifth ring.
James will turn 42 in January, while Curry turns 39 in March, signaling that Father Time is quickly catching up to them.
While the Warriors have Davis on their list of dream acquistions this offseason, it might remain wishful thinking as reports have indicated that the Wizards don’t plan on trading Davis.
