According to Athletic, the Lakers and LeBron are in the worst phase of their life together, with a divorce between them now looking very likely.

In his 19th season as a pro, LeBron James remains one of, if not the best, basketball players in the world. However, the sentiment of those attending the Cleveland All-Star Weekend, including Sportish, seems to be realizing much sooner than initially thought. Today (23/2), an article from Athletic states that King’s relations with the Lakers front office are worse than ever, causing his departure from Los Angeles to be hastened and even become a reality in the current finals season. .

James was waiting for a move before the February 10 trade deadline, it didn’t come about and now there is a gap between him and Pelinka, Bass, Rabbis, a gap to be bridged. What did LeBron want? Russell Westbrook is set to trade for John Wall, who didn’t play this year, had 40 games last year, none two years ago, 32 in 2018-19 and 41 in 2017-18. Typically, James wanted to oust his key point guard he was seeking for a physically and mentally unprepared player who went from Houston to Los Angeles with a huge risk over his head.

The King’s contract with the Lakers expires in the summer of 2023. Next season his salary will reach $44,474,988, an amount the Cavaliers can add to their payroll with some good rewards. For example, if they offer Colin Sexton, Caris Levert and Laurie Markanen, then there’s a good chance the California team will say yes and accept such an agreement, which will help them change a page in their history. James has 29.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.6 steals and a block every 36.8 minutes in 41 regular-season games.
