Brian Windhorst If Russell Westbrook was not traded yesterday that there was a decent chance that the Lakers would have sent him home

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

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

On the day LeBron James broke the all-time scoring record Russell Westbrook refused to sub out of the game for him

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

Brian Windhorst eyes Warriors as likeliest non-Lakers LeBron James destination I'd watch Golden State He played with Steph Curry and Steve Kerr on the Olympics You know he's close with Draymond Green
