The LA Lakers have been one of the most active teams already in the market, with the February trade deadline less than eight weeks away.

The three-headed offensive monster of Luka Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves has allowed them to be one of the best offensive threats in the league. Deandre Ayton's slight adjustments to his game, where he has evolved his game, slamming in lobs and scoring at the rim instead of pulling up from midrange, have also helped.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been linked to many top players in recent trade rumors, and they might have to move on from a defensive guard.

Kellerman brought up the New York Knicks, which the agent called "wishful thinking." Paul said James would make the Knicks a better team, but that applies to every team in the league.

James, as Paul later noted, has a no-trade clause. The 40-year-old superstar is scoring 16.1 points per game, which is on pace to be a career low, though he's also averaging career lows in minutes (33.1) and shot attempts (13.9). He is coming off a season-high 29 points in a win over the Philadelphia 76ers.
