Josh Richardson Trade to Los Angeles Lakers | lakers Rumors , Nba News
Dave mcmenamin reported that the lakers believe they can find shooting via trade on june 30th with Kyrie Irving being the number one target and rob pelinka recently said something that was really interesting here’s what he said we’re still not done we still have more work to do and that’s in regard to this off-season and the type of moves,
The Los Angeles Lakers are looking to make now that might even be outside of a Kyrie Irving trade because i know there’s been a lot of buzzes around that for the Los Angeles Lakers a kyrie trade is something that’s been reported on a lot but i think that also there could be some other smaller moves that the lakers make to bolster their overall shooting And wing defense because that’s something that this roster could use right now they could use a solid wing defender and even if they bring in kyrie and Joe Harris in a potential trade,
I feel like they could still use a solid 3 and d wing to solidify their roster that could really help out this Los Angeles Lakers team although if they traded for kyrie and Joe Harris they wouldn’t have any roster space left so you don’t look to free agency you look to potential trades and i think that trading for josh Richardson could be the perfect move i talked about it a little bit in a video yesterday about how josh Richardson would be a great fit for the team because even though a guy like Coby white who has been linked to the lakers who could provide some shooting he doesn’t really provide a lot on the defensive side of the ball he’s a more offensive minded player and if,
The lakers were to trade for kyrie they already have an offensive minded guard there one of the best offensive guards in the league so i think they’d be fine plus if Joe Harris was involved in the deal they’d have another sharpshooter but having a guy who’s a two-way player could be very valuable to this lakers team and you look to the San Antonio Spurs they’re a team that is currently in a rebuild we saw them trade away their all-star point guard Dejounte Murray in a trade centered around danilo Gallinari and draft picks they waved in Danilo Gallinari essentially they were just looking to get draft picks so i think that an intriguing trade for the San Antonio Spurs could be bringing taylon horton tucker to their team and then also, getting a future second-round pick and the lakers bring in josh Richardson this could be great especially in the event of a Kyrie Irving trade the lakers would get a wing defender on their roster while also adding shooting with potentially bringing in kyrie and Joe Harris so i think that this could be a really smart move for the Los Angeles Lakers just bringing in winged defenders should definitely be a priority as this off season progresses and there might be some guys that they could find who teams would be willing to trade they could bring them on to the team and overall bolster the depth of this roster but also in the event of a kyrie trade i think that Patrick beverly could be the perfect backup point guard for the lakers.
