Kyrie Irving has reached out to LeBron James in an attempt to recruit him to the Dallas Mavericks and create a Big-3 with Luka Doncic.
This is what Shams Charania of The Athletic and Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report write, adding that the All-Star guard wants the Mavs to explore the possibility of trading for LeBron James.
It will be very difficult for Dallas to make this happen, as under the new CBA, it will be challenging for any franchise to have three players under max contracts.
LeBron James has one year and $46.9M left on his current contract with the LA Lakers and has a player option for the 2024/25 season, worth $50.6M. For his part, Kyrie Irving is a free agent and the Mavs list him as top priority to re-sign him this offseason.
LeBron James and Kyrie Irving have expressed the desire to reunite after winning the NBA championship with the Cleveland Cavaliers back in 2016.
