Rich Paul follows up on his Austin Reaves trade idea
Rich Paul, LeBron James' agent, felt compelled to go on his podcast and give a rationalization of his Austin Reaves trade idea.
LeBron James put up one of the best games of his season on Tuesday night, scoring 31 points to go along with 10 assists and nine rebounds in a 141-116 win over the Atlanta Hawks, but after the game James had to do a bit of damage control in the Los Angeles Lakers locker room.
If the value proposition of podcasts is to create controversy, then Rich Paul’s latest venture is definitely #1. Be it calling the Lakers not being contenders, or the idea of trading away a 27-year-old Lakers star,
LeBron James cleared the air following the Lakers' 141-116 win over the Hawks on Tuesday, separating himself from the opinion of his agent, Rich Paul of Klutch Sports, who said that L.A. should trade away fan favorite Austin Reaves.
After losing to the 13th seeded Utah Jazz at home on Monday, it is obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers need to make a change to remain contenders this season.
Paul once again made headlines by stating unequivocally that he does not want any “charity case” for The King in the 2026 All-Star Game, urging voters to refrain from selecting the veteran forward if they genuinely believe he does not deserve that honor based on his current production.
As LeBron denies influencing Rich Paul's trade suggestion, ESPN's First Take reveals why a lifetime of close partnership makes public separation impossible for the NBA's most powerful duo.
