The Golden State Warriors have been linked to LeBron James over the past two seasons in hopes of pairing him with Steph Curry. The latest NBA trade rumors suggest that the LA Lakers are not interested in acquiring Jimmy Butler or Jonathan Kuminga for “The King.”
According to NBA insider Jake Fischer of The Stein Line, the Warriors have inquired about James’ availability over the past 18 months. The four-time NBA champion will need to request a trade away from the Lakers to facilitate a deal since he has a no-trade clause.
Sources told Lakers Daily that the Lakers’ front office is not interested in Butler or a potential sign-and-trade involving Kuminga. Butler is younger than James, but he has also battled injuries over the past few seasons, while Kuminga remains inconsistent despite his potential.
