Despite his impending retirement, LeBron James, the star of the Los Angeles Lakers, is still determined to win an NBA title. NBA insider Dave McMenamin revealed that James will continue to monitor the team's offseason moves that could affect his future.

Trade rumors have swirled around James since he has expressed his displeasure, but an NBA insider paints a rosier picture of how the Lakers and James are operating. According to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, things have been fine in Los Angeles.

Instead, new reporting from The Athletic’s Dan Woike and Joe Vardon clarifies that James has not asked for a trade or buyout. The Lakers have reportedly heard nothing from him or his representation about leaving. Meanwhile, the team is shifting focus toward Doncic’s long-term role in Los Angeles.
