Over the last few weeks, the Los Angeles Lakers have somewhat stabilized their season by being on a five-game winning streak. In the absence of Anthony Davis, LeBron James has helped the team to be competitive and winning the last five games.

Despite that, as a whole, the Los Angeles Lakers still have a record of 19-21 and hold the 11th seed in the Western Conference. Keeping that in mind, the Lakers still need to improve their roster. Because of that, the current narrative around the league is that LeBron James will request a trade from the team after this season.

One way for the organization to stop that from happening is to trade for a big-name superstar such as Bradley Beal or Zach LaVine in the upcoming offseason.


The Lakers Could Use Their Future Draft Picks For Trading For Either Bradley Beal Or Zach LaVine

Zach LaVine has established himself as one of the best players in his position over the last few seasons. But considering the fact that LaVine reportedly has a strained relationship with the Chicago Bulls, other teams are keeping in an eye out for trading him.

From the Lakers’ point of view, if they cannot trade for LaVine, they may try for Bradley Beal, according to a recent report by Marc Stein.

Via Marcstein Substack:

The belief in some rival front offices persists that the Lakers are saving those picks for a splashier trade target such as Washington’s Bradley Beal or Chicago’s Zach LaVine. How realistic is either pursuit, though? Both players, like Davis, are plagued by daunting injury concerns, which only adds to the angst attached to L.A. potentially surrendering the two best trade assets in its possession for the remainder of the decade. This much is clear: We will be talking about the Lakers and their situation nonstop for the next month … and probably beyond the Feb. 9 deadline.

The Lakers have been criticized several times by the fanbase for protecting their future first-round draft picks instead of using them in a potential blockbuster trade. If this report by Stein turns out to be true, the Lakers can finally get LeBron James some much-needed help to win another NBA Championship.
