James, who will turn 41 in December, is rumored to want out of the Lakers after Paul released a statement regarding the 21-time All-Star accepting his $52.6 million player option.

Discussions surrounding Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James potentially appearing on the trade market have quieted down recently, according to The Ringer's Zach Lowe.

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.
