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 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 Hes only worth 30M instead of 50M youre not getting that from LeBron James LeBron James doesnt believe in that and I dont expect him to accept that If youre the Lakers and if you force LeBron to leave hell go somewhere else and play for less money

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

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

Fischer There is definitely a lot of belief around the leagues around Los Angeles stemming out of Klutch Sports that LeBron has so many outcomes on the table here It might even be more likely than not that he leaves Los Angeles than stays with the Lakers

Charania The Lakers have made it clear that they want him back but the one thing I do know is that multiple contenders are already circling If LeBron is really going to hit the open market and decide and have a true free agency he's not going to have a shortage of teams
