NBA trading rumors: James reunited with Thick Brow, and Irving in the Dallas Mavericks super three
5:48pm, 12 May 2025Basketball
NBA trade rumors about LeBron James may heat up in the offseason as reports say people close to the Los Angeles Lakers superstar say James does not rule out the possibility of him playing elsewhere. James has experienced another first-round exit, his third in Los Angeles since 2021, even though the Lakers signed a generation of geniuses like Luca Doncic before the trade deadline. The Lakers have performed poorly, and this loss could put James further away from the Purple Gold Trophy in his last NBA season.
The Lakers want to focus on Luca Doncic, which may not be entirely suitable for LeBron James. This could prevent him from winning his fifth championship, which he could win on another team.
A interesting ending for James is the Dallas Mavericks, where he can reunite with Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving. James and his former champion teammates had chemistry. Irving may return in January 2026, and the Mavericks can make progress in the playoffs with their new Big Three.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers can strengthen their familiarity with Luca Doncic by exchanging several key teammates in the Dallas Mavericks.
NBA Trading Rumor: How LeBron James reunited in Dallas with Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving
Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks will trade again in the near future remains to be seen. The Mavericks boss and management continue to face the anger of fans as they accidentally diverted their superstar. Nevertheless, after an injury-ridden season, they hope to improve their hopes of winning the championship over the next year, which can help them regain the trust of their fans.
If LeBron James is selected in the trading market, he could be a lucrative option for the Mavericks, especially as they are a star who recovers from an ACL injury without Irving. James has a $52.6 million player option. If he chooses to join, he can be traded.
James will also have to give up his non-trade clause. Assuming he opted to join and waive his no-trade clause, here is how Los Angeles and Dallas trade through this package:
Mavericks get:
LeBron James
Dalton Kneckett 2031 First Round Draft Swap
Revenue: $56.6 million
Lakers get:
Klay Thompson
P.J. Washington
Daniel Jafford
Nagy Marshall
Cash income: 54.2 million
Mavericks will part ways with several top role players, who will have the draft funding. The Lakers added three wings to the deal, allowing sophomore Dalton Kneckett to leave could be the ideal solution for the Lakers to cut their salary. The Mavericks added star power to form the NBA's best Big Three, while the Lakers added Thompson, Washington, Gafford and Marshall to get center, shooting and wing defense.
