However, he gained momentum over the next two seasons and became a fan favorite. The Lakers even rejected trade packages that included Horton-Tucker for Kyle Lowry.<\/p><p>However, time passed, and the player&rsquo;s performance declined significantly. After signing a three-year, $30 million contract with the Lakers, he spent two solid seasons with the&nbsp;Utah Jazz. Last season, he joined the&nbsp;Chicago Bulls&nbsp;and had the worst year of his career. As a result, he&rsquo;s leaving the&nbsp;NBA.&nbsp;<\/p><p>In 2024-25, Horton-Tucker averaged 6.5 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 12.5 minutes of playing time. This was clearly his least active year in the league.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">When LeBron gives props, you know you&rsquo;re doing something right &#129397;&#127482;&#127474;<br><br>&#128312;4 years ago LeBron James high-praised his then-teammate and Fenerbahce's new transfer, Talen Horton-Tucker <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IGfEeEiPXc\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/IGfEeEiPXc<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Eurohoops (@Eurohoopsnet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Eurohoopsnet\/status\/1969325722683462082?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>September 20, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lakers never considered trading LeBron James, says journalist <\/h3><p>The offseason between&nbsp;the Los Angeles Lakers&nbsp;and&nbsp;LeBron James&nbsp;was turbulent, to say the least. This is because, despite accepting his player option, the star and his team seemed unhappy with the franchise&rsquo;s stance. The Lakers didn&rsquo;t pursue LeBron for a contract extension and didn&rsquo;t make any radical moves to improve the roster for next season. Thus, the franchise is&nbsp;slowly leaning toward Luka Doncic, preparing for the medium and long term.<\/p><p>This led to rumors that&nbsp;the Lakers might trade LeBron James, especially after the statement released by the player&rsquo;s agent. However, according to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, the franchise never considered trading the player and never seriously engaged in a discussion about a possible trade.<strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/noticias\/nba\/warriors-tentaram-diversas-trocas-por-lebron-james-diz-jornalista\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'><\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>Thus, LeBron&rsquo;s 23rd season will be with the Lakers.
