LeBron James has been making headlines ahead of his record-setting 23rd season, as speculation swirls that he could be on his way out of Los Angeles. The 40-year-old has been linked to both trade and buyout rumors this summer, and Nikola Jokic's agent added some fuel to the fire in a recent post on Instagram.

James, 40, could surely compete on the basketball floor for a number of more years if he really wanted to. His value may be just as large as the face of a movement and as someone who can help get things done. The politics of sport in Saudi Arabia aside, a new basketball league somehow backed by James would change the game entirely.
