While the idea of a LeBron trade draws eyeballs, the reality of putting together one that works for everyone is much more difficult.

That baton was passed as soon as L.A. finalized the trade that sent out James' handpicked sidekick, Anthony Davis, to acquire Luka Dončić, a 26-year-old megastar more than capable of piloting the Purple and Gold well past the LeBron era.

According to recent comments from Jovan Buha of The Athletic, the Mavericks may have a chance to trade for him. According to Buha, he's uncertain if the Lakers and James have a good relationship going right now.
