Found July 07, 2009 on newsday.com:
The WWL now denies its own story with sources: LeBron James did not tell Trevor Ariza he would stay in Cleveland past 2010, according to sources close to the Cavaliers' superstar -- contradicting what a person close to Ariza said Monday night. That source said that James told Ariza he planned to remain with the Cavaliers past next summer, when he can become a free agent. James could not be reached for comment Monday night, but on Tuesday, sources who spoke to James said the story told by the person close to Ariza was wrong. Just like me/They long to be/(a source) Close to you..... Chris Broussard is a good reporter with a level headed approach to his coverage, and perhaps jumped the gun on a big story before checking with the other side. But let's consider the other side of this affair: LeBron didn't want it out that he likely will stay in Cleveland. It proves, if anything, he will be a free agent in 2010 and the Knicks will have a shot at him. Whether he stays or not, LeBron clearly wants to enjoy the recruiting process. So, as far as Mission 2010 goes, it's still game on.
