LeBron James shouldn't be leaving the Los Angeles Lakers despite the noise that surrounds the superstar and the iconic franchise. He has a no-trade clause, so he'd have to dictate where he wants to go, and it'd be hard to convince a team to give up significant assets for a soon-to-be 41-year-old.

In fact, "there were whispers in league circles about LeBron James having eyes for Dallas," Hollinger reports. But the four-time NBA MVP was not willing to pass on $52.6 million with the Lakers for a non-taxpayer mid-level exception to sign.
