NBA trade deadline is 15 days away, so we're right in the thick of when all the rumors around the league will start to pick up. Jimmy Butler is the most talked about trade piece right now, with the Phoenix Suns being eyed as the frontrunner to land him if a trade were to transpire.

A common trend with LeBron James-led teams is that they tend to move around picks and promising prospects in exchange for a win-now piece, on obvious strategy in order to maximize the team's contention window while they have one of the greatest players of all time at their disposal.

It seems that the rumors the Los Angeles Lakers won’t make big moves before the NBA trade deadline have the team’s top stars concerned. Unlike many other offseasons, the Lakers front office chose not to make any major roster changes in the summer and instead went with a change at the top of their coaching staff.
