TORONTO -- As Joe Johnson waits to clear waivers, Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James let his interest be known in the seven-time All-Star.
"He knows that we want him," James said before the Cavs held shootaround Friday morning in preparation for their game against the Toronto Raptors. "If he decides to come (to Cleveland), it'd be great. But if not, we'll continue to move on with what we have."
James, a former USA Basketball teammate of Johnson's, is one of several members of the Cavs organization with ties to the 15-year veteran.
