Rich Paul assures NBA fans that LeBron James won’t be traded away from the Los Angeles Lakers. It’s that time of the season again when groundbreaking changes happen, but James’ agent claims the 19-time All-Star won’t be one of them.
Rich Paul Isn’t Asking Teams To Trade For LeBron James
Adele’s husband reassures anyone worried about the 39-year-old’s spot on the Lakers. He’ll stay, and they’re not planning to go anywhere else. Considering the trade deadline is only a week away, it’s calming news for Lakers fans.
The agent told ESPN there are no plans to move the superstar away from his current team.
“LeBron won’t be traded, and we aren’t asking to be.”

This is after James’ random tweet of an hourglass emoji fueled speculation around the league.
The Lakers’ current predicament of being in the ninth seed of the West with a 25-25 record could prove problematic. Many are ready to blame Darvin Ham for their questionable run, especially with the team and resources at their fingertips.
James currently holds a $51.4M player option for his contract next season. Furthermore, his son’s eventual entrance into the league is coming closer on June 26-27. Combined, these all might stir up the Lakers roster if Bronny James doesn’t land with them.
The Chosen One Predicts The Superstar’s Move Once Again
While rumors are difficult to confirm, this specific journalist has predicted James’ past moves.
He initially predicted that the four-time NBA champion wouldn’t stay with the Miami Heat in 2014, which he didn’t. James eventually moved to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Next, he predicted the arguable GOAT‘s move to the Lakers in 2018.
Additionally, he even knew that Kawhi Leonard would find himself with the Los Angeles Clippers, not the Lakers.
Now, he’s predicting that there are talks down the grapevine that the Lakers have plans to move James.
Again, take rumors with a grain of salt, but this journalist has had a credible run.
Do you think the Lakers will ship off James?
