LeBron James' Cleveland return 'bigger than basketball'

The words that explained it all came straight from the man himself, by way of the Sports Illustrated exclusive in which LeBron James explained his decision to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers: "bigger than basketball."

James going home again is about humanity more than anything else, about a 29-year-old from Akron, Ohio, who always loved the place that lost so much love for him four years ago and was willing to do the seemingly unthinkable to right the wrong of his summer 2010. Anyone who was there Dec. 2, 2010, when James went to Cleveland for the first time in a Miami Heat uniform would have bet their mortgage that he could never return.
