With LeBron James’ future looking uncertain in Los Angeles, the Mavericks have been viewed as a potential suitor for the four-time champion. In a recent Bleacher Report article, Zach Buckley tabbed the Mavericks as a landing spot for James.

LeBron James opting into his player contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, followed by a statement released by his agent, has fueled trade and buyout rumors for the last week.
