Lil Wayne Makes Predictions About LeBron, Melo And The NBA’s Biggest Free Agents


Lil Wayne didn’t just become one of rap’s best
sports-punchline-crafting MCs by guessing. The
man knows his sports.
He’s appears regularly on ESPN’s “First Take,”
and occasionally kicks it courtside at NBA games.
So of course he has an opinion on the biggest
questions of this NBA off-season, like where
marquee free agents like LeBron James and
Carmelo Anthony will sign.
“Honestly, I think Bron might go to Cleveland, and
you might see a [Chris] Bosh or somebody like
that follow him,” Tunehci told MTV News on the
set of his “Krazy” video early Tuesday morning
(July 1).
“I think Bron going back home,” he added,
referencing both that LeBron is from Ohio, and
that he began his professional career there with
the Cavs. “Especially with Kyrie [Irving] signing
that extension.” (Irving, currently the team’s best
player, agreed to his extension in the early
morning Tuesday — the same time Weezy was
shooting his video…Like we said, he knows his
sh–.)
As for Carmelo?
“I think everybody know Melo going to Chicago,”
Wayne said in a prediction delivered with the kind
of confidence we’ve grown accustomed to in his
raps. “Said and done.”
Actually, hold that thought.
“Don’t mark my word on that,” he backtracked.
“But I kinda think it’s said and done.”
Even if he’s not 100% certain where the basketball
stars will go, he’s seems to have a little better
grasp on the NBA than he does the release date
of his own album, Tha Carter V — considering he
told MTV News will either drop in July, August or
September.
Said and done.
