LeBron James' Reported Lakers Trade Stance Amid Interest From 4 Teams originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is set to play in his 23rd NBA season after picking up his $52.6 million player option for 2025-26. However, the question is whether he'll be with the Purple and Gold franchise or with another team.

The Miami Heat are expected to keep Andrew Wiggins heading into next season, despite trade interest from the Los Angeles Lakers.

According to Anthony Irwin of ClutchPoints, L.A. has talked to teams about wing Matisse Thybulle, guard Marcus Smart and backcourt player Ayo Dosunmu.

A monster three-team trade idea involves the Lakers, Warriors, and key players such as Walker Kessler and Jonathan Kuminga to shake up the Western Conference.
