Reason for LeBron James Meeting With Maverick Carter, Nikola Jokic's Agent Revealed originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

The world was sent into a frenzy last week when a photograph emerged with LeBron James, his longtime business partner, Maverick Carter, and Nikola Jokic's agent, Misko Raznatovic, sitting together on a yacht.

Jokic's agent posted the image to his official Instagram account accompanied by a cryptic caption, "The summer of 2025 is the perfect time to make big plans for the fall of 2026!"

The post was made from Saint Tropez, France, though it's unclear when exactly the get-together took place.

While there was plenty of speculation as to the reason behind the meeting, most thinking James was trying to find his way onto the Denver Nuggets' roster, lips appeared to be sealed -- until Wednesday.

As per Front Office Sports, James, Carter, and Raznatovic met to discuss potentially forming a new international basketball league.

While this is all preliminary information, per reports by Front Office Sports, details of the potential league have surfaced:

Front Office Sports acknowledged that Eurohoops.net first reported the Carter-backed league was the "possible reason" for the meeting.

NBA commissioner, Adam Silver, announced in March that the league is also considering a new European league, so it will be interesting to see how these leagues coexist in the future.
