Suddenly it’s less of a mystery why LBJ looking to maximize his $$$’s

Exactly.

Kleber will be a winderful contract to either simply let expire thus paving the way for a Reaves extension or at the trade deadline. Not much action now.

If we waive Shake for Love… I guess? I dunno, not sure Luka’s all that pumped with the geriatric lineup

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.

Kevin Love will soon be bought out by the Jazz after being traded from the Heat.The soon-to-be 37 year old is approaching his final NBA contract, and he’s expected to prioritize joining a title contender.Love played a career-low 10.9 minutes per game with Miami this season. pic.twitter.com/pTaFdxN6lI— Evan Sidery (@esidery) July 7, 2025

For reference, Ja Morant is 6’2 with a 44in max vertical leap. Bronny James is 6’2 with a 40.5in max vertical.— NBALakersReport (@NBALakersReport) July 6, 2025

Bronny records a 40.5 inch max vert 👀🔥4th highest of any participant (via @krystenpeek)pic.twitter.com/IynHEwB3wj— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) May 13, 2024

Being that the average Vertical in the NBA is 28 inches, a 6’2 guy with a 41-inch vertical is ridiculous. LeBron at 6’9 was listed at 44 inches early in his career; and at 39, the last I saw was around 41 to 42. Clearly, Bronny got a lot of his Dad’s genes. 🔥— HiNote. 🛸 (@HiNoteee) May 13, 2024

WHO DOESN'T WANT TO DUNK?They say the basketball gods created the 3-point shot to give 5' 9" basketball players their counter to big men dunking the basketball.

Excellent video recapping Ayton’s career up to now.

Former Laker Mychal Thompson says DeAndre Ayton will prove how good he is to everyone – Via @LakersNation “I think it’s a great move. He’s the perfect center for the Lakers.

I’ll defer to Mr Big Shot Chauncey Billups. When you pay a dude $25mill to go away….in means something. When someone shows you who they are….believe them.
