However, the chances of Irving LeBron convincing James to join Dallas are slim.

 

The Mavericks lack the funds to craft a trade package that would appeal to the Lakers, and the financial implications make it unlikely the Lakers would accept such a move.

More likely, Irving will stay in Dallas and try to secure a max contract while the Mavericks look to re-sign him and explore trade options to bolster their roster around Luka Doncic.

Overall, the Mavericks' focus seems to be on building a contender and fighting for a championship in the near future.
