When the Los Angeles Lakers traded for Luka Dončić last season, they seemingly landed the future of their franchise for years to come, but Dončić staying with the team long term isn't so cut and dry.

When the Los Angeles Lakers acquired Luka Doncic in the blockbuster trade ahead of last year's deadline, it was a passing of the torch. LeBron James had been the face of the franchise for years, but now it's Doncic's turn.

If James gets moved, the Dallas Mavericks would likely be one of his top landing spots. When discussing the situation once again, Paul recently shared what he's looking for in the future. He later added that it’s up to the media to decide how to interpret his comments, and that his focus is on enjoying the summer for himself and James.
