Former Los Angeles Lakers center Andrew Bynum might have given a basketball fan an inside information about his upcoming free agency decision when they met at the airport on Monday.

Bynum, who has yet to announce his next team, reportedly told a fan at the airport that he's going to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers next season.

The Cavaliers have already offered Bynum a lucrative two-year, $24 million deal, but the free agent center is still considering offers from other suitors like the Dallas Mavericks, Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks.

Lee Van Cleef posted a picture showing Bynum at the airport with a backpack as he was on his way to Atlanta for a meeting with the Hawks on Tuesday.

According to AP Sports writer Tom Withers, Bynum's agent isn't expecting his client to make his decision until his meeting with the Mavericks on Wednesday.

Bynum is considered as the remaining potentially dominant free agent big man on the market after Al Jefferson (Charlotte Bobcats) and Dwight Howard (Houston Rockets) already signed with their new teams.

The former Western Conference All-Star starter did not play a single game last season with the Philadelphia 76ers due to chronic knee problems. Bynum was part of the blockbuster four-team trade last summer pulled off by the Lakers, Orlando Magic, the Denver Nuggets and the Sixers.
