What changes and adjustments the Lakers will make this summer has always been a matter of great concern to fans, and at the beginning everyone has already defaulted in their minds that the player who will leave the Lakers is Wei Shao, and many trade rumors revolve around Wei Shao. However, recently, the United States Yang Yi A-Smith spoke boldly in a show, he believes that the best way to solve the Lakers' current problems may be in James, and bluntly said that the Lakers should consider trading LeBron James this summer.
A-Smith's words sound a bit outrageous, but think about it carefully, the Lakers' current big three, the only one with a lot of transaction value is James, although Westbrook and Lakers have the meaning of "breaking up", but his next home is difficult to find, high annual salary plus a sharp decline in strength, other teams want to get Westbrook, they must pay more high-quality chips, they are certainly not willing to take this risk. As for Davis, his ability is still the top level in the league's interior line, but there are too many injuries, and in the two seasons after winning the championship, Davis has played only 76 games, including 36 games in the 2020-21 season and 40 games in the 2021-22 season.
Therefore, only James is the only one in the big three who has trading value, although he is 37 years old, james can still average 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.3 steals per game. At the beginning, James signed a 2-year contract with the Lakers, there is no player option, it is impossible to leave the Lakers voluntarily, and only the Lakers can trade him to leave. Judging from James's current strength, if he leaves the Lakers and goes to a more competitive team, then this team will definitely become a big favorite to win the championship, and it can also exchange some high-quality chips and some draft picks for the Lakers.
Do you think the Lakers will choose to trade LeBron this summer?
