Even though they have the best player of all time on the court, the Los Angeles Lakers are currently the picture of incompetence. Their record after 35 games is 17-18, good for 18th in the league. They rank twenty-fourth in field goal percentage, fifteenth in rebounds, and nineteenth in points scored.
Even though LeBron and company have shown that they can create a splash if they make it to the playoffs, that may be easier said than done. It may be time for a significant change for the team because of this. But which trade would be most exciting for La La Land residents and take the Lakers to the next level? Listed below are four guys that could start a flurry of interest right away.
Green Draymond
Even though Green wouldn’t provide much offensively for the Lakers, that’s not why they would sign him. As soon as possible, he would contribute defensively and offensively. But would they be willing to give up any riches for someone with his violent and unpredictable tendencies? Since he is friendly with LeBron, he may be more inclined to toe the line in Los Angeles whenever he returns from his suspension.
James Harden
If we’re talking about unpredictable, would LeBron be open to seeing his old Cleveland friend again? He could if Irving is dedicated to winning games and shows up every day (and doesn’t use social media). If the correct trade deal could be arranged, Los Angeles might acquire him; they courted him last season when it was clear the Brooklyn Nets had had enough.
Williamson, Zion
Maybe the Lakers could use another big dude in purple and gold now that Shaq has been gone for over 20 years. Even though Williamson has a spotty ιnjury record and struggles with his weight, he is a top forward when fit and determined.
Kevin Ware
