SANDUSKY, Ohio -- Cedar Point has jumped on the bandwagon in trying to persuade LeBron James to return to Cleveland.

On Wednesday, @cedarpoint tweeted that it would rename one of its roller coasters after LeBron James.

WKYC thinks the Raptor would be appropriate.

Why? Back in August 2010, LeBron was seen at Cedar Point on the Raptor. We certainly don't want him going to the Toronto Raptors, though.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have reportedly cleared enough salary cap space to re-sign free-agent forward LeBron James, according to ESPN's Marc Stein.

Stein reported the Cavaliers have facilitated a three-team trade with the Brooklyn Nets and Boston Celtics, that sent point guard Jarrett Jack and shooting guard Sergey Karasev to the Nets and Tyler Zeller to the Celtics.

As part of the deal, the Celtics also acquired Marcus Thornton from the Nets, center Tyler Zeller from Cleveland and a future first-round pick of the Cavaliers. Cleveland will get a undetermined pick from the Nets' 2014 NBA Draft class.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst reports the Cavaliers now have $24 million in cap space, and James' maximum salary for the upcoming season will be $20.7 million.
