Lakers could also remove the protection on the 2027 pick in a different trade with Utah.
Brown could serve as a backup for both Reaves and Max, making him an ideal sixth-man replacement for Rui. He provides that speed and athleticism...
Collier is another player that provides speed and athleticism.
Bruce Brown is the ideal player the Lakers should target in a trade to strengthen their roster. His explosive athleticism and speed make him a...
It's 2.5 first. We likely are not in the top 4 of 27 anyway. We would have to do terrible during the 26-27 season. But we would have AD, Reaves,...
Juzang is cost controlled at no more than 3 million per year for 3.5 more seasons.
But you also get Juzang and a second. Juzang is an excellent shooter and could also create his own shot.
Send Wood, JHS, the 2031 first-round pick (top 13 protected), the 2029 first-round pick (unprotected), and the removal of protections on the 2027...
While I’m not particularly enthusiastic about Kessler due to his lack of fit with AD because of spacing concerns, I do like the idea of utilizing...
Yeah this needs to be considered for sure. 24-25 is Kessler enough for us to win the championship? 25-26 Lebrons last season. How good are we at...
I like Kessler more as a long term replacement for AD than as a current complementary player to AD. Sure, Kessler could take on the role of...
I wonder which direction they go? Rui + Vincent + 2029 1st (unprotected), and 2031 1st (top-14 protected) for Cam Johnson works. Brooklyn mostly...
Yeah, that is a tough one. I like how Bruce could play 1-3 on defense and offense. He also hits 37% of his corner threes. If we send Vando + Gabe...
This is a lateral move, but just a random trade thought: Vando + Vincent + two seconds to Portland for Thybulle + Williams. Thybulle is a little...
I am not sure if they are that concerned with backup center. It's a 12-14 mpg role. They might just roll with what they have, especially with DFS...
We haven't seen what it looks like yet, but having Max and DFS in the starting lineup perhaps allows Reaves to play with the required usage for...
In the 2026 off-season, Lebron is projected to retire, and the Lakers are projected to have a ton of cap space. Lakers could also trade for Luka...
Yeah because they are tanking. Everything is the opposite when you are talking. Part of me was hoping Gabe would get hurt so his value would...
They had to get him off of their team LOL.
I really hope they were not just being cheap. Yeah good point about us cutting someone. Maybe we cut Hayes or something, and then convert...
