LeBron James didn't hold back after ending speculation about his potential reservations about the Lakers securing their future with Luka Doncic's trade. Many believed that Doncic's addition would end LeBron's tenure in LA, as the team would cater more to their new superstar's needs than his.

However, LeBron answered questions regarding the situation on Tuesday for the first time after leading the Lakers to a 122-97 win over the LA Clippers. He said:

"What’s wrong with that? If I had any concerns, I would have waived my no-trade clause and got up out of here."

Despite being under contract, LeBron James controls his future with the Lakers. Alongside Bradley Beal, he's one of two players with a no-trade clause. Any possible deal involving the four-time MVP will have to be approved by him as he holds the power to veto a trade he doesn't want.
