Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[cow]

I messed around and came up with one Lebron trade I could possibly stomach.

DAL: Lebron, Bronny, ‘26 FRP (ATL), ‘31 FRP (LAL)
LAL: Klay, Gafford, Martin
ATL: PJW

This is perfectly legal and the Mavs can use the TPMLE and add a Vet Min to get to 14 spots:

Kyrie | DLO* | B-Will | Bronny
Christie | Exum* | Hardy
Lebron | Naji
Flagg | Omax
AD | Lively | Jones*

(Powell trade for air, send ‘30 SRP)

DLO - TPMLE
Exum - Min
Jones - Min


The Dallas Lakers

Including PJW was my solution to the "7-for-1" problem.  Glad you figured out a way to include another FRP as only 1 for PJW/Gafford (the Luka special) just seems incredibly light.  Something tells me LA would want to keep PJW though so that would kill my interest.  Mavericks becoming the Lakers and the Lakers becoming the Mavericks would be kind of funny though.

It would need to be done in the offseason as I'd want LeBron to help recruit CP3.  I think LeBron probably plays three more seasons maybe less if he gets another ring.  That fits in with the shelf life of AD/Kyrie and, more importantly, Nico.
