The Los Angeles Lakers offseason has been a rough one — at least in terms of how owner Jeanie Buss and company look from the outside.
Turmoil and dysfunction within the front office has been the overwhelming story for the Lakers at a time when they are looking to build around LeBron James.
It has gotten to the point that some have speculated that James should demand a trade away from Los Angeles. The 34-year-old doesn’t have a no-trade clause and the Lakers would likely get a massive return if they were to do so, but the chances of that happening are slim to none.
