Cavs’ LeBron Seen Wearing No. 6; Sticking With No. 23

LeBron James scored six points in limited action during the Cleveland Cavaliers’ annual Wine & Gold Scrimmage on Monday, but it was another No. 6 that made things interesting.

James wore a No. 6 practice uniform for the event. That was, of course, his jersey number during his four seasons in Miami as well as for the 2008 and 2012 Olympics. (He wore No. 9 for the Athens Games in 2004.)

James will be wearing his familiar No. 23 for the Cavs this season, the same number he has worn every season he’s been in Cleveland, but he explained how he feels comfortable practicing while donning No. 6.

“It’s just a number of mine,” James said after the scrimmage. “One of my two numbers — 6, 23. There’s nothing to it. It’s my practice jersey.”
