PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- LeBron James will not waive his no-trade clause for the Cavaliers, according ESPN.com's Chris Haynes.

While James, 32, will reportedly not waive his no-trade clause for any team during the 2017-18 campaign, he could still opt out of his contract to become a free-agent after the season. James holds a $35.6 million player option for the 2018-19 season.
