The Los Angeles Lakers seem to be happy campers right now. After a disastrous 2022 and start to 2023, the team rallied back to a Conference Finals appearance. But now, with their core of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, along with young stars on the roster, the Lakers could be set up for big things next season. Additionally, the team plans to be active in the trade and free agency market. As LA tries to acquire more star power, there is one name that is on everyone’s mind.

While rumors have floated around for James Harden, Damian Lillard and even Trae Young, only one name sounds realistic – the Point God might be making a return to LA, and the Lakers should definitely try to join the sweepstakes.

LeBron James completes the Banana Boat crew

The Banana Boat has long served as a reminder of one of the most impressive collections of basketball talent. Comprising LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul, the crew is of a close group of friends.

Out of them, LeBron has had the opportunity to play with each member, save Chris Paul. After the historic Heatles collaboration with Wade, and the disastrous 2022 with Melo, when will a potential CP3 team-up land?
