LeBron James’ decision to join the Los Angeles Lakers was met with a lot of fanfare.
Seeing how James is arguably among the best NBA athletes of all-time, it seemed fitting that he’d suit up for the Lakers at some point in his career.
His family has a lot of ties to the area and the team, and he was a noted friend of Kobe Bryant, someone who meant so much to this city and the team.
James has played for the Lakers for several years, winning one championship in the COVID-19 bubble, but there have been talks that he’s looking to play elsewhere to close out his career.
Even with Luka Doncic now on the roster, James could be in search of one final destination where he believes he could win one more ring.
Those rumors heated up after a recent Instagram post that NBA Central shared on X, which noted a background with a Los Angeles Clippers logo in it.

This could be nothing, of course, as this could be a coincidence, but it could also be the beginning of the end of James’ time with the Lakers.
The other Los Angeles team hasn’t been explicitly mentioned in any trade rumors or free-agent acquisitions, but they might start popping up shortly.
Being as massive a celebrity and athlete as he is, James’ social media activity tends to gain a lot of traction, and this post isn’t any different.
It’s only a matter of time before fans get an opportunity to see James around his Lakers teammates again and figure out how dedicated and excited he is to be with the organization for at least one more season.
