Rich Paul might entertain LeBron trade with Lakers front office: Report

The February 6 deadline is fast approaching, and teams have been rushing to get deals over the line. Jimmy Butler and Brandon Ingram have been headlining the trade talks so far but that could all change if LeBron James wants to move on from Los Angeles.

According to reports from ESPN's Kendrick Perkins, the Los Angeles Lakers and agent Rich Paul would be open to a trade for LeBron if he wants it:

"My sources tell me that If LeBron James, at any point, comes out and says that he wants to be traded or he wants to entertain it, they’re going to entertain it. It ain’t no holding him back. Last year, Rich Paul stopped it. Let’s remember now what ended up happening when Golden State called and asked them about LeBron, Rich Paul, his agent, silenced all that. LeBron, if they get in that conversation again, I’m hearing Rich Paul ain’t getting in the middle of it," discussed Perkins during a segment of First Take.

LeBron's agent Rich Paul had reportedly turned down the prospect of a Stephen Curry and LeBron James linkup during last season's trade deadline. In a different report by ESPN, Marc Stein claimed Paul was the only reason why James was not traded to the Warriors:

"Sources say Paul implored both teams to scrap the concept — despite some owner-to-owner dialogue between the Warriors' Joe Lacob and the Lakers' Jeanie Buss and Green's determination to lobby James to push for relocation to the Bay Area — largely because he wanted to insulate James from potential backlash over switching teams for the fourth time in his career" wrote Stein

The Los Angeles Lakers haven't been able to prove that they are title contenders this season with AD and James being unable to lead their team. A complete rebuild would be a good idea and will be possible if they trade James to the right team for future picks and young talents.
