Wade: Dining with LeBron 'like friends do,' not about joining Cavs
There's a big difference between going out for dinner with a friend, and meeting to talk shop.
Dwyane Wade was forced to explain that after TMZ Sports reported he was "meeting" with LeBron James later this week, with the implication being that the two would discuss Wade possibly joining the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Or GO to dinner. Like friends do. Not Meet for dinner there's a difference. https://t.co/6SyKkUfvTb

When asked if he was going to join LeBron in Cleveland next season after arriving at LAX airport following a European vacaction, Wade had said, "I'm gonna join him at dinner this week somewhere."

The Bulls are reportedly set on reaching a buyout agreement with Wade in the coming months, which would then allow him to sign with a team like the Cavaliers.
Having exercised his player option, Wade is set to earn an estimated $23.8 million in the final year of his contract.
