“At this point, it’s no secret Irving and James are open to a reunion from their days playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron has made it clear as recently as February’s trade deadline that he’d be open to playing alongside his former teammate.”
Sources: Kyrie Irving has reached out to Lakers star LeBron James in attempts to see if James would come to Dallas. Irving is a free agent this offseason.

What would a LeBron to the Mavericks trade look like?
Here’s an accepted version, though draft picks would likely have to be included:
Per Haynes, LeBron would likely have to negotiate a buyout in order for this to be realistic.
“In order for Irving and James to partner with Doncic, the two would have to take a sizable pay cut.
The easiest—and unlikeliest—path to adding James this offseason would be for him to orchestrate a buyout,” he reported.
It could be another crazy offseason in the NBA.
