Here&#8217;s a tweet from that era:<\/p>\n<p>Parsons, Curry and the Warriors will now watch as James attempts to win his fifth NBA ring in the City of Brotherly Love. He&#8217;s signed a two-year, $8 million deal and joins all-stars Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown and Tyrese Maxey.<\/p>\n<h2>Micah Parsons aiming for mid-season return<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/micah-parsons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Micah Parsons<\/a> joined the Green Bay Packers ahead of the 2025 season. He spent the first four years of his career with the Dallas Cowboys but couldn&#8217;t reach an agreement for a contract extension, and he was subsequently traded to the Packers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/news-thank-god-let-go-cowboys-won-trade-nfl-fans-react-freaky-micah-parsons-admits-foot-fetish\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Parsons<\/a> had a stellar start to life in Green Bay, amassing a stat line of 10 sacks, 20 QB hits, and 60 pressures in his first 11 games. He earned Defensive Player of the Year shouts and was crucial to the team&#8217;s Super Bowl hopes.<\/p>\n<p>However, Parsons suffered a season-ending ACL injury in a Week 15 game against the Denver Broncos. He had a successful surgery, and he&#8217;s been in rehabilitation mode ever since.<\/p>\n<p>According to ESPN, Parsons won&#8217;t return until at least mid-October. According to Rob Demovsky, the perennial Pro Bowler&#8217;s hopes of returning in the first month of the season were unrealistic. He&#8217;ll need to reach the nine-month mark before he&#8217;s cleared for practice.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, if <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/news-wants-cowboy-bad-hates-living-green-bay-nfl-fans-brutally-mock-micah-parsons-gets-spotted-dallas-stadium-fifa-wc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Micah Parsons<\/a> starts the season on the PUP list, he would be eligible to return to practice ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Expect the superstar edge rusher to push for the soonest possible return date.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\" title=\"like article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\" title=\"dislike article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Nick Igbokwe<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/news-nobody-wants-play-stephen-curry-micah-parsons-outraged-lebron-james-joins-philadelphia-76ers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micah Parsons is a huge Steph Curry fan, and he was hoping that LeBron James would choose Curry&#8217;s Golden State Warriors as his next destination.
