As a result, every major NBA star was hesitant to join the Purple and Gold. However, James decided to risk it all and signed with the Lakers.Speaking of James split with the Lakers, the analyst reminded the franchise of the 4x NBA champions decision and how they should be forever indebted to him.Far and away, the biggest loser of this whole thing is the Lakers. LeBron James saved the d___ franchise.That team telling everyone who would listen what a pain in the a__ LeBron is led to a scenario where LeBron James was willing to play for the league minimum, but not for them, Wright said.Every single move that the Lakers made this offseason you could have done all of that and still brought LeBron back. Instead, they couldnt wait for the LeBron James era to be over, Wright added.Considering that James is still an All-NBA caliber player and signed a veterans minimum deal with the 76ers shows that he was willing to take a massive pay cut.Unfortunately, the Lakers werent willing to do that for James in favor of Luka Doncic taking over the team asap. Fans will find out which side made the correct decision after the conclusion of the 2026-27 NBA season.Read more:Colin Cowherd claims LeBron James has bring it on mentality compared to Michael JordanMax Kellerman claims 41-year-old LeBron James was better than Karl Malone ever was in his lifeBam Adebayo addresses relationship with LeBron James after Miami Heat snub

Mohamed Salah has chosen his next club: Turkish side Trabzonspor. The Liverpool icon, who left Anfield as a free agent at the end of last season, has arrived in Turkey ahead of the move and has been pictured by the club wearing the teams colours ahead of signing his contract on Thursday. Salah is just two seasons removed from an outstanding Premier League campaign where he scored 29 goals and made 18 assists in 2024-25, so to see the 34-year-old end up in the Super Lig is somewhat surprising. Bordo-Mavili formasyla ilk kez kameralarn karsnda lk mesaj Byk Trabzonspor Taraftarna:Bize Her Yer Trabzon! #SalahIsComingpic.twitter.com/Sr1KcRDwpk Trabzonspor (@Trabzonspor) August 5, 2026But the forward scored just seven league goals in his final season at Liverpool, with his minutes diminished amid a falling out with former Reds boss Arne Slot, so it also makes sense that Salahs range of suitors was somewhat limited. Still, the assumption was that Salah would have the pick of clubs from the Saudi Pro League or the MLS, or even an illustrious European side who could offer him the chance for a final campaign in the Champions League. Trabzonspor, by contrast, are generally viewed as the fourth-biggest side in Turkey, behind Istanbul giants Fenerbahce, Galatasaray, and Besiktas. Based in the city of Trabzon, on the Black Sea, Trabzonspor have been champions of Turkey seven times, with their most recent title coming in 2021-22. Managed by former Turkey international Fatih Tekke, Trabzonspor finished third in Super Lig last season - behind champions Galatasaray and runners-up Fenerbahce. They are yet to qualify for the Europa League league phase, and face a two-legged play-off this month so European football is by no means a guarantee. Mohamed Salah will sign a deal with Trabzonspor after arriving in Turkey (PA Wire)Should Salah sign for Trabzonspor, the Egypt captain would instantly become the clubs biggest signing. Former Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge and former Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe are among their former players. Their current squad includes on-loan Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana, as well as a couple of Cape Verdes World Cup stars: Wagner Pina and Sidny Lopes Cabral, who scored their stunning goal against Argentina. As Salah is a free transfer, Trabzonspor would have been able to commit more of their transfer budget towards Salahs wages. His last contract at Liverpool was enormous and reported to be worth 400,000 per week. As one of the sports biggest global stars, Salah offers huge upside to Trabzonspor and their sponsors commercially. Trabzonspors main shirt sponsor, financial services company Papapa, also holds naming rights for their stadium. Salah has been pictured wearing Trabzonspors colours and is set to arrive in the city on Wednesday before signing his contract. Trabzon, are you ready? See you very soon, he said.
