Marc Stein have had his say about a possible LeBron James departure from the LA Lakers, with the Knicks, Warriors, and Mavericks in running.

This comes as James’ agent Rich Paul put out a series of curious statements related to his top client’s future in Los Angeles and what appears to be hopes for trades. James to remain a Laker remains the most likely option, but the odds have shifted from -700 to -340 at the time of writing.

Despite speculation regarding the two sides being a potential fit, the Dallas Mavericks reportedly aren't pursuing a trade for Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James.
