James opted into his contract but is reportedly watching the Lakers' offseason moves closely. Will the NBA's biggest star demand a trade?

According to Arizona Sports’ John Gambadoro, there’s a legitimate possibility of the Lakers parting ways with LeBron James after seven seasons. “LeBron wants out of LA and they want him gone,” Gambadoro reported Tuesday. “Watch Game 1, how disinterested LeBron was.”
