Those rumors have been put to bed following the blockbuster trade to welcome Luka Doncic to the city of angels. A new rumor has taken its place, which is that James may demand a trade as the Lakers are seemingly gearing up to make Doncic the next face of the franchise.

Utah Jazz head coach Will Hardy gave an eye-opening take on Luka Doncic and LeBron James' new partnership ahead of Doncic's Lakers debut.

A new report indicates that LeBron James's camp was taken aback by LA's GM Rob Pelinka so quickly acquiescing to Luka's roster suggestions.
