Surprise in LA, he is LeBron's favorite former teammate & wants him at the trade deadline

LeBron James is locked in to win another championship title in the league, and while he still considers himself to be the best player in the NBA, he knows that at 38 years old he can't do it alone, at the end of the day is a team's effort.

James has often stated that one of the best teammates he has had in his 20-year career at the NBA is his former Cavs teammate Kyrie Irving. The PG has been long rumored to reunite with LeBron in LA, but it hasn't pan out.

And while the Lakers have often said they aren't interested in signing the PG anymore, James' desires are different as revealed by the NBA insider Jovan Buha.

“[LeBron’s] made it very clear that he and Kyrie have made up... LeBron has been very keen on potentially playing with Kyrie again. I would not be surprised if those rumors come up again, closer to the trade deadline, depending on what happens at Dallas.” Said Buha.

Kyrie Irving could join the Lakers at the trade deadline

It will depend on different things, but a potential arrival of Kyrie Irving for the next season is still viable. LeBron James wants Irving and the Dallas PG also wants to reunite again with his former Cavs teammate. But it will depend on how both the Lakers and the Mavs are doing. If LA is doing great without Irving, they will probably keep D'Angelo Russell and Gabe Vincent instead of making a gamble with the Dallas star.
