2026-27 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

Yeah as the roster is currently constructed, there definitely is a need for Bronny in the regular season. His defensive upside is a much bigger need for us situationally than Hardy’s scoring.

Absolutely would need to get a real second round pick back for Bronny, at the very least

I actually like Bronny and would love a story where he continues to develop into a rotation player and has some nice moments in a Laker jersey. But if we think Manon can slot in to a similar role, I would love to convert him into an additional second round pick and roster spot. If you do Vando and the pick swap for Kuminga, having 4 second rounders and multiple expiring contracts to trade would be very nice.

 

pretty sure he was president of bball ops. he had the final say on the roster

 

Nah man, Kuminga is the Ayton of wings. Talented, athletic but no motor, bball IQ or desire to be a role player.

He is the most important archetype in modern basketball and two teams that really need him, have let him go.

 

I don't buy the Vando + swap for Kuminga.
It's too good to be true lol

 

I think it's a world of difference playing with Curry and Luka. Luka always has the ball and you just gotta be good attacking 4 on 3s. Shoot the open shot, cut to the basket or attack the space. Curry plays a lot off ball, there's a million screens going, you're always running, you need to pass and read the game at every position, it's just so different

PJ was Kuminga before arriving to Dallas. He was a pure scorer that didn't do anything else in Charlotte team without any impact on wins.
Luka makes the game really easy for you. Steph is more part of a team game where you need a lot of IQ and to have more versatility and multiple skills


But yeah I don't want to ride or die with Kuminga. He would be a great gamble in our current situation but there's questions about his motor, IQ and consistency. So if we strike out, it's not the end of the world and hopefully we find a starting 4, even if it needs to be during the season

 

he’s our player.

 

Anthony Davis sales L.A. Home for 32 million. End of an era.

 

Debanysta looks like the real deal!!!! Already 11 points. Athletic. Can shoot it. Washington is going to have a squad.

Young
Johnson
Debanysta
Davis
Sarr

Davis gets to play 4 like he wants to. Like he likes to. Still has Keyshawn George. They are deep. They have the depth. I like them better than Boston. They are right there with Philly.

Cleveland ain’t messing with this squad. I don’t care how much you bring LeBron.


Looks like LeBron goes to Golden State. s*** Stephen has been tampering with him all season.
