According to a report, the Warriors recently thought about making an attempt to trade for LeBron James — again.

The King wants to end his career on the highest of notes—but Los Angeles might not be the place for him to do so.

LeBron James has been very meticulous and calculated with everything he has done throughout his career, so his apparent hesitation about where things stand with the Los Angeles Lakers has people within the NBA paying close attention to the situation.

During the 2024-25 NBA season with the Lakers, James played in 70 games. He averaged 24.4 points per game to go along with 8.2 assists, 7.8 rebounds, and a steal, while shooting 51.3 percent from the floor and knocking down 37.6 percent of his three-point attempts.

An NBA executive said LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers might be "butting heads" after the Lakers did not post an announcement about James' opting into the final season of his contract.

For months, publicly and privately, the Lakers have been signaling their desire to begin the Luka Doncic era in Los Angeles, even if it meant ending the LeBron James one.
