Setting up a transfer for LeBron James, is it really possible? Everything suggests not, and there is obviously a 99% chance that the Lakers star will end his career without ever being traded. However, in a parallel world, a totally crazy trade was imagined by an Internet user. Be careful, you have to hang on…

The totally lunar trade proposed for LeBron James in 2021
If the prospect of a transfer from the King has never really been on the agenda, an Internet user had decided to treat the subject under the prism of the absurd, imagining a trade with 130 players a year ago. and half ! The craziest thing is that technically and legally, such a move would have been feasible. And in this scenario which belongs to pure fiction, it is in Oklahoma City that LeBron would have landed…
Who wins this trade?
We spare you an in-depth analysis of this table, which is far too large to be coherent. Here, it is the only fact that it was necessary to imagine a mad scheme of 130 players to even consider a transfer of LeBron which is to be underlined. Lakers fans can be reassured: according to the latest rumors, and despite the Lakers’ complicated season, the Akron native has no intention of requesting a trade.
At the end of the contract in 2024, James will go except cataclysm at the end of his deal. Then, the plan is clear: free agent, he will sign in the team that will have drafted his son Bronny, whatever it is, in order to play at least one season with him in the NBA. A historic first.
10, 130 or 300 players: it doesn’t matter, LeBron James is untransferable, as he has always been during his career. A real feat on the part of the King, who continues to prove that this extremely rare status in history is justified. Royal, simply.
