Amidst trade window chatter, the loudest buzz has been about LeBron James, with the Golden State Warriors emerging as the team most frequently linked to the superstar. Just as whispers of LeBron’s potential shift to San Francisco grew louder, another suitor entered the picture, adding even more twist to the already dramatic situation. A week ago, an anonymous trade executive grabbed unexpected attention by connecting LeBron to Sactown. Yes, a side whose possibilities with the King had not been discussed before!

The unnamed person told Steve Bulpett of Heavy, “They (Kings) have some draft picks a young talent. If they could get to the salary, LeBron would take (De’Aaron) Fox and (Domantas) Sabonis and elevate the hell out of them — particularly Fox. With that threesome, those guys could be a force.” However, Chandler Parsons wasted no time axing that idea when the topic popped up on Fan Duel TV’s Run It Back.

“This is so ignorant. This is dumb,” the former Mavs star said while dismissing the narrative. “They gonna trade like a (Keegan) Murray or a Kevin Hurter or someone, like, a young prospect for LeBron James for this year? This is honestly probably the dumbest take I’ve ever heard,” Parsons said. Contradicting the executive’s suggestion, the former player boldly claimed, “He doesn’t make them better. He makes them worse, and he makes their future worse.”

What doesn’t seem to work for Parsons is that the 4-time champion doesn’t have much time left in his tank… “Well, could he win some games this year for him now? But, yeah, let’s trade for a 40-year-old guy who we don’t know how much longer he’s gonna play to a second with the Kings,” he brutally pointed out.

In a couple of weeks, LeBron will turn 40, which means his time in the league is running short. And he has already mentioned that he plans to hang up his boots before his wheels fall off. Considering that, the idea of the Kings giving up young talents in exchange for the 20-time All-Star “makes no sense” to Parsons and many of us in the fanbase too.

While he discarded the idea of LeBron James moving to the Sacramento side, his co-host Lou Williams believed that he wasn’t going anywhere because of his son’s situation with the Lakers.

Former NBA star feels “now is not the time” for LeBron James’ move

There has been a massive wave of speculation surrounding a potential trade for LeBron James. A shocking report even claimed the Lakers might end up moving father and son together! Although LBJ hasn’t commented on any matter, the rumors quickly circulate. But Lou Williams confidently stated that King James would stay in LA, sporting his Purple and Gold jersey. “In 21 years you haven’t been traded, you haven’t requested a trade,” Williams said in the previous episode of the show. “Now is not the time,” he declared.

“Let’s not forget we’re two months removed from this whole Bronny James situation with him being able to play with his son and having that opportunity,” he said.

LeBron recently had a historic moment with his son Bronny on the Lakers’ opening night, playing as the only father-son duo to share the court. So, the former combo guard believes the 39-year-old wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to share the court with his son in the same uniform during the limited time he has left in his career, to join some other franchise.

So, if anyone could confirm it and put an end to all these rumors, whether it’s the 22-season veteran moving to Sactown or swapping teams with Dennis Schroder, it would be LeBron James himself. However, the Laker has largely remained silent on the matter. Does this mean he’s not paying heed to this or is he actually weighing the odds? It’s difficult to predict what’s next in this drama-filled saga.
