According to Chaitanya Dadwar, contributor of US sports media F/W. Sports radio host John Gambardolo claimed that sources have confirmed that LeBron James "want to leave Los Angeles" and that the Lakers "want to leave."

Since being eliminated in the first round of the 2024 NBA playoffs, all eyes have been focused on the Lakers, focusing on their future, especially LeBron James. Now, even after James chose the $52.6 million player option in his 23rd season in the NBA, his future with the Lakers is not safe as he is reportedly seen as another expiring contract and potential deal.

After the Lakers viewed James as a trader, Phoenix Sports host John Gambardolo has some sources close to the league, claiming that James and the Lakers agree on finding a new trading destination for him.

"After the playoffs, someone close to LeBron told me about this - he said: "LeBron wants to leave Los Angeles and they want him to leave. Look at the first game, how uninterested LeBron is. Now, most people here know that my source is not Kevin Bacon’s 6 degrees. ” Whether James really wants to leave Los Angeles is still unknown, but senior sources claim we may have seen LeBron James wear a Lakers jersey for the last time. The 40-year-old star still held on the team’s All-Star and All-NBA-level figures last season, scoring 24.4 points, 8.2 assists and 7.8 in 70 games in the regular season alone 24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24. ”

James' agent Ritchie Paul revealed that he admitted that the team's future is built around Luca Doncic, but James wants to compete for the championship. Between the lines, it was not said but explained by all NBA fans: The Lakers are rebuilding and James wants to win. Since the Lakers don't have a chance to win now, is this James' time in Los Angeles ending? If it really ends, then James will face a trade for the first time in his career, and in previous reports, four teams tried to ask James's trade might but none of them made substantial progress.

If James asked for a trade, where do you think he would land? Maybe it would be the Cavaliers, Warriors, Spurs, Timberwolves or Knicks?
