'Absolutely': LeBron James all for playing with 'brother' Chris Paul
MILWAUKEE – Arsenio Hall might not want to plan any trips to Phoenix anytime soon.
Working as a guest host on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the comedian asked Los Angeles Lakers All-Star LeBron James could a trade "still happen" involving James' close friend, Suns All-Star point guard Chris Paul.
Hall: "Would you like for it to still happen?"
James: Smiles. Laughs.
This all started with Hall asking James about when Paul's trade to the Lakers to team up with Kobe Bryant was vetoed by then-NBA commissioner David Stern in 2011.
In New Orleans at the time, Paul was eventually traded to the Los Angeles Clippers.
Hall then asked about Paul coming to the Lakers via trade now as Paul's family lives in Los Angeles.
