With more than half of the season played and the Los Angeles Lakers not even close to clinching a place in the playoffs, it is certain that the team is in need of making some changes to the roster.

The Los Angeles Lakers have certainly been linked to several players since the offseason, but there is a huge issue that is the biggest obstacle for the team. It is Jeanie Buss being hellbent on not wanting to sell the future of the team and include the Lakers’ two future first-round draft picks in any trades.

Apart from that, the Lakers may try to include Russell Westbrook in a trade. Although it was earlier reported that the team has given up on trying to trade Russ, recent rumors suggest that’s not the case, and the Lakers are open about including Westbrook in potential trades.


A 4-Team Trade That Could Help The Lakers Land Myles Turner And Bogdan Bogdanovic

Myles Turner and Bogdan Bogdanovic have been on the radar of several NBA teams over the last few months. The Los Angeles Lakers are also among those teams, and Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report recently used that information to create a hypothetical 4-team blockbuster trade. The potential trade includes the Lakers, Hawks, Pacers, and Pistons.

Via Bleacher Report:

As is the case with any fake trade, any haggling is welcome. More picks or young players could be involved. You may want to redirect a prospect or future asset one way or another. That’s the fun of a made-up deal.

However, this general framework accomplishes something for every team involved.

A more thorough explanation of why each team would say yes can be found further down, but it helps to be able to see everything in one glance.

Los Angeles Lakers Receive: Myles Turner and Bogdan Bogdanovic

Atlanta Hawks Receive: Bojan Bogdanović, Buddy Hield and Alec Burks

Detroit Pistons Receive: John Collins, Jalen Johnson and Max Christie

Indiana Pacers Receive: Russell Westbrook (to likely be bought out), Frank Kaminsky, a 2027 first-round pick from Los Angeles and a 2029 first-round pick from Los Angeles

This 4-team trade will not only help the Lakers get two excellent players in Turner and Bogdanovic but also help the team in trading away Russell Westbrook. But once again, the issue with the hypothetical trade remains Jeanie Buss’ reluctance to include the 2027 and 2029 first-round picks in any trade.
