If LeBron James' future with the Los Angeles Lakers remains uncertain, a potential reunion with the Cleveland Cavaliers is still on the table.
NBA insider Brian Windhorst suggests a sign-and-trade deal could bring James back to Cleveland, but it would come at a cost.
The Cavaliers would need to part with a core roster piece, such as Jarrett Allen, to make the deal work.
Windhorst believes the Lakers would be eager to acquire Allen, who could fill their void in the middle with his shot-blocking, rebounding, and efficiency around the basket.
However, Cleveland would need to carefully consider the move, as it would likely come at the expense of a cornerstone of their frontcourt.
