James wore the No. 6 as a member of the Miami Heat where he played from 2010-2014, winning two NBA Finals along with a pair of Finals MVP trophies and regular-season MVP hardware.
Thursday’s tweet concludes a day full of teases for James. Earlier in the day, he hinted that his iconic pregame chalk toss ritual may be making its return.
The potential for a return to No. 6 has fans and teammates alike extremely excited. Already fans are hard at work photoshopping James in his new uniform.

Teammate Kyle Kuzma pleaded for James to complete the total package with the return of his headband.
All we need is the headband bro. Give the fans what they want. https://t.co/IiW7lGYIvf
