LeBron James has been urged to leave the Los Angeles Lakers to join one specific team by Stephen A. Smith.
LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers don’t seem to be on the best of terms right now. All offseason long, there have been rumors about the future between the two parties.
Following the Lakers’ blockbuster move to acquire Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks before the trade deadline last year, the team clearly moved on from building around James. Doncic is the new face of the franchise in Los Angeles.
Early on in the offseason, James chose to opt in for the final year of his contract. He will become a free agent next offseason unless he reaches some kind of new deal with the Lakers. There seems to be a belief that he won’t finish his career in Los Angeles.
Should that become a reality and James does hit the open market next offseason, quite a few teams could come forward with interest in signing him.
