Phoenix Suns: LeBron’s Dream Team Scenario with KD Burns Brighter after Darvin Ham’s Bold Move.
LeBron James’s future with the Los Angeles Lakers is somewhat uncertain. He needs to decide on his $51.41 million player option for the 2024-25 NBA season. His agent has hinted that he might become a free agent. Despite turning 40 in December, LeBron remains a formidable player who could boost a struggling franchise, such as the Phoenix Suns.
The decision of former Lakers head coach Darvin Ham to decline an assistant coaching position with the Phoenix Suns might bode well for LeBron’s potential move there. Reports suggest that Ham’s refusal to join Mike Budenholzer’s staff could indicate improved chances for the Suns to acquire LeBron.
According to Kevin Hicks of Inside the Suns, this development fuels speculation that LeBron might join Phoenix, especially since it’s unlikely he’d play under his former coach again.
Even with a star trio of Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker, the Suns were swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs, resulting in Frank Vogel’s firing. Budenholzer was then hired as the new head coach. If LeBron joins the Suns, he would provide them with a crucial playmaker.
This season, LeBron averaged 25.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game, shooting 54 percent from the field and 41 percent from three-point range.
