Brian Windhorst The Lakers position from what I understand is that They've been interested in trading for Kyrie Irving but they're not so sure about trading for him and being obligated to give him a 200M contract at season's end

Windhorst LeBron's intention is to play and the focus right now is making a deal with the Lakers They are negotiating I think he's going to try and make a deal with the Lakers The league generally believes the two sides are going to come together

Windhorst The Los Angeles Lakers would be very open to the prospect of trading LeBron James for Jarrett Allen

Windhorst If LeBron Doesnt Make Up His Mind Soon Hell Likely Be Out Of LA If LeBron isnt ready to make up his mind the consequence is increasing the chance of the Lakers moving on I think LeBron fully understands that

DLLS Mavs Marc Stein Detroit needs a shooter Detroit is one of the teams that has inquired about Kyrie but the Mavericks have put the message out there that Kyrie is not available So the Pistons are looking at other options Tyler Herro Coby White Isaiah Joe

Windhorst Lakers reached out to LeBron to LeBrons representative to Rich Paul and said Wed like to have LeBron back OK But there have been no further talks as of today when I got this update LeBron has not you know made himself available to meet with the Lakers yet

The Lakers have been linked to Thunder guard Lu Dort as a potential trade target to pair with Luka Doncic
