Los Angeles Lakers started the season with a lack of success and are now fairly dependent on their centerpiece, LeBron James to walk forward in the path of glory in the absence of Anthony Davis.? Therefore, many believe that the Lakers are wasting the twilight years of the four-time champion as they are unable to build a team around him and AD. However, considering the current situation of the Lakers, King James might also think the same. In fact, a recent report from an NBA insider hinted at something similar that grabbed the attention of the fans and made them reflect on social media.
In one of the latest episodes of the Sedano & Kap Show podcast, NBA insider Ethan Skolnick delved deeper into what he thinks about King James. Skolnick said, ?I honestly believe that if he could be traded before the trade deadline, which he can?t be, he might be pushing for that behind the scenes right now”? Subsequently, clarified that was clearly not an option as he could not be traded.
Thereafter, expressed his wish of where the four-time MVP should finish his career. The NBA insider said, “He should be finishing his career in a place like Cleveland or Miami?and try to finish up and win there.”?

Cleveland is the only option lmao unless he wants to wait and see where bronny goes. Sure Lebron has a storied history in miami but i think his best chance of competing is cleveland. And it’s perfect because, well, it’s cleveland. It all depends on how much $$ he wants doe
