Since LeBron James and Stephen Curry showcased their dominance at the Paris Olympics, NBA fans have been excited about the two legends joining forces in the NBA. Their chemistry on the court was eye-catching as Team USA went undefeated, securing a gold medal.
While James ultimately took home the MVP honors, Curry has continued to express his admiration and respect for his fellow Team USA star. The way James and Curry complemented each other during the tournament sparked interest, and fans have been hoping to see their partnership extend beyond international competition.
Bleacher Report stirred up the conversation by releasing a mock trade scenario involving the two superstars. The mock trade proposed a significant deal, such as sending LeBron James to the Golden State Warriors for a package from the Los Angeles Lakers.
“Golden State Warriors acquire LeBron James from the Los Angeles Lakers for Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody, Kevon Looney, 2026 first-round pick, 2028 first-round pick, 2030 first-round pick (1-20),” the report read.
LeBron James and Stephen Curry Team-Up Unlikely Despite the Mock Draft
Stephen Curry recently signed a one-year contract extension worth $62.6 million, ensuring his continued presence with the Golden State Warriors. Before him, LeBron James agreed to a two-year, $104 million deal to stay with the Los Angeles Lakers.
James’ contract includes a player option for the 2025–26 season, allowing him to decide on his future when the time comes. Despite this, no credible signs or scenarios suggest James will join Curry on the Warriors soon.

Moreover, as LeBron approaches his 22nd NBA season, he’s set to match the longest career span in the league’s history, as no player has played more than 22 seasons. Fans have long dreamed of seeing James and Curry pair up in the NBA, with Bleacher Report even sharing a mock trade scenario that imagines James heading to the Warriors.
The prospect of these two NBA legends playing together seems to remain a fan fantasy rather than a realistic possibility.
