Klutch Sports is not feeling all that great.

Klutch Sports Group, Lakers superstar LeBron James’ agency, is reportedly unhappy with Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka.

According to Bleacher Report, they’re not happy with Pelinka deciding to keep Russell Westbrook.

“According to multiple NBA sources, Klutch is not happy with Pelinka,” Pincus wrote. “The sentiment has long percolated, but it reached a boil when Pelinka refused to trade [Russell] Westbrook and a future first-round pick (likely 2027) for Houston Rockets guard and Klutch client John Wall.”

Westbrook was acquired by the Lakers over the summer, with L.A. hoping that acquiring the superstar would help the team’s chances at winning another title.

Meanwhile LeBron is already talking about leaving  the Lakers in order to play with his son.

There’s obviously a pretty good chance that he’ll have to leave L.A. in order to play with his son, if that’s what he wants to prioritize at the end of his career, which isn’t too far away.
