I'm told the Lakers are working to find a consolidation trade to both free up their full BAE and clear a roster spot. Via @AnthonyIrwinLA Looks like something will happen soon with the Lakers 🔥👀 pic.twitter.com/SXNN75c8Uq— Playoff LAL (@PlayoffLAL) July 7, 2025
It appears that the Wiggins trade is dead after the Heats ridiculous asking price. So I wonder who the target would be. Our lack of draft capital really hurts. A rebuilding team isn’t going to do it without draft capital attached and a good team would really want the players we would send out.
Some guy named Buha, said to be a Laker Insider, I thought his role had changed…..never regarded his opinings with any regard….anyway…Athlon Sports thru MSN said Buha said the trade proposal was Knecht, Hachimura and a first for Wiggins (on two years worth of contract, with the 2nd season being his option…so he would be a one year loaner….which I find very very inadequate….to do a trade shipping off Lakers I don’t wish, Vanderbilt, Gabriel, and Kleber until proven otherwise that he is healthy…Milton…..would take some work….maybe a 3rd team…Irregardless, I don’t think Wiggins is a key to the Lakers being a championship caliber team this coming season.
