Luka Doncic to Heat Possibility Surfaces Amid LeBron James Drama originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Lakers have had an eventful offseason to say the least.

Amid serious speculation about LeBron James' future in Los Angeles, there is now an update about what's coming next.

Despite considerable speculation about a LeBron trade, the reality is that he never asked for a trade and he has a no-trade clause.

Per Vardon and Woike, the NBA's all-time leading scorer's lack of engagement on a potential exit and numerous barriers to the forward joining other teams will likely combine to keep him on Los Angeles into training camp.

Drake recently went viral for covering up his LeBron James tattoo, and WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes has a scathing take on the situation.

ESPN's Shams Charania broke the news Wednesday that Beal would be bought out by the Phoenix Suns and sign a two-year, $11 million deal with the Clippers. The Lakers may not have ever been the front-runners for Beal. Milwaukee and Golden State were also reported as possible destinations.
