Four NBA teams have contacted Rich Paul of Klutch Sports Group expressing interest in trading for Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James. The leading scorer in NBA history, James picked up his 2025-26 player option with the Lakers.

The extreme awkwardness between LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers continues minutes after his was all smiles with wife Savannah and daughter Zhuri.

James sat near L.A. assistant Greg St. Jean for most of the third quarter and spoke with other members of the coaching staff in attendance.

Trade speculation has been swirling around LeBron James for the past two weeks since his decision to exercise a $52.6M player option for next season was accompanied by a statement from agent Rich Paul indicating that James will be monitoring the Lakers‘ personnel moves to make sure they’re assembling a championship-level roster.

Bad Bunny, like many other artists, has name-dropped James multiple times in his songs, and he's also been spotted sitting courtside at Lakers games. He participated in the NBA's celebrity All-Star Game and is an avid basketball fan.

Insiders are calling out Lakers' “idiotic” offseason strategy that could further inflame growing tensions with franchise icon LeBron James.

The business of basketball is just as vast and cutthroat as the competition on the court. No one knows that better than legendary executive Sonny Vaccaro.

And now, Skip Bayless, never one to hold back his opinions, has sent out a pretty serious warning for LeBron. He’s urging him to pump the brakes on a new interest that, according to Skip, could end up taking control if he’s not careful. Let’s just say, this isn’t your usual on-court critique.
