LeBron James trade proposal involves Bronny James, ex-Vol Dalton Knecht
LeBron James trade rumors are all the rage right now. ClutchPoints’ Brett Siegel made it clear that there hasn’t been any reason for there to be, though.Teams have not
been signing in on a James trade, per Siegel’s reporting from the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, Nevada.
“LeBron opted into his $52.6 million player alternative for the 2025-26 season, as any sane individual having the opportunity to include this type of money to their savings account would do, and all signs point in the direction of him honoring his commitment to the Lakers. This is also the extensive consensus from rival teams at NBA Summertime League, consisting of those who have actually asked about James’ trade accessibility in the past,” Siegel wrote.Despite Siegel
‘s intel, it’s hard to disregard ESPN’s bombshell report about the “super star transition” from James to Luka Doncic following the latter’s stunning arrival in Los Angeles this past trade deadline.BasketNews’s Vukašin Nedeljković didn’t sound overly hyped for the Lakers in the trade scenario he devised that likewise includes the Dallas Mavericks.Nedeljković’s offer would send Klay Thompson, P.J. Washington, Caleb
Martin, Naji Marshall, and Jaden Hardy to Los Angeles. LeBron would be joined by his child, Bronny James, and former Tennessee Volunteers star Dalton Knecht in Dallas.”The Mavericks would be quiting a portion of their depth and flexibility, while the Lakers, in return, wouldn’t exactly get a transformative plan that sets them up for the future, “Nedeljković wrote.This is the kind of deal that ‘d just take place if James’s camp requested a trade to only the Mavs. It’s not too hard to imagine that, though, provided Dallas has the greatest odds to land James in a trade, Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving, 2 players he’s won titles with, are on the Mavericks’roster, and Cooper Flagg, the No. 1 choice in the 2025 NBA draft, is about to launching.
