LeBron James won two titles with the Miami Heat in the early 2010s, and that is the team where he spent his prime. During his time with the Miami Heat, LeBron James wore the No. 6. However, LeBron James switched his number from No. 6 to No. 23 for his second stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers and continued wearing it for part of his tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Earlier this year though, it was revealed that LeBron James will be switching back to No. 6, and there is no doubt that many have fond memories of him wearing that number and dominating. Miami Heat LeBron James was borderline unstoppable, and perhaps the Lakers will have a similar energy about him next season.
The Twitter page of Fanatics, an online retailer for sports gear, has recently shared a video of LeBron James’ No. 6 jerseys in production. Basketball page Hoop Central also Tweeted the video, and there were many excited to own a jersey with James’ new number. There’s no doubt that he’s become a legend sporting that number.

Perhaps next season with the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James can add more to his vast list of accolades. He can add more chapters to his story wearing his old number. The Lakers acquired Russell Westbrook and a cadre of solid veterans such as Carmelo Anthony and Trevor Ariza during the offseason, and it definitely seems as though LeBron James has the supporting cast to make a run at his 5th ring. There’s plenty of talent on the roster.
The Los Angeles Lakers have clearly been gearing up for a title run, and LeBron James will be key to their title hopes. Hopefully, the Lakers can bounce back from a difficult loss in the first round, and try to win a championship next season.
