With many losses this season, the Lakers are logically thinking of making changes within the roster. A new player could be traded, which surprised fans. But on the side of Frank Vogel, we think we have found another winning formula.
21-21 is the Lakers’ record at mid-season. It is not a habit for LeBron James, who is more of the type to hang out at the top of his conference, but not here. It must be said that the Angelinos had to manage a lot of absences, including that of Anthony Davis and Kendrick Nunn at the moment.
It’s a fact: this roster has never been at 100%. However, this does not justify the poor performances, like Russell Westbrook, heavily criticized after his game against the Kings. Rob Pelinka is expected to take action by the February deadline, it remains to be seen in what form.
New trade in sight at the Lakers!
We know it, the front office wants to get rid of 2 players, even if this mission promises to be quite complex. While waiting to see how things evolve, we have just learned thanks to Bleacher Report that Dwight Howard could follow the same path…
The Lakers don’t have a lot of flexibility when it comes to a trade, but that doesn’t stop Los Angeles from exploring trades. Rob Pelinka only has Talen Horton-Tucker and Kendrick Nunn, valuable players who are not at the minimum, but that won’t be enough to accommodate Grant or Turner. The Lakers called on other teams to gauge Dwight Howard’s worth, sources said.
Rather good this season as a pivot, Howard could be sacrificed. This is surprisingly news, but Pelinka can choose to bet on DeAndre Jordan, for lack of anything better. Another signing in the free agent market is also possible, but nothing should move until the deadline.
This rumor is not that crazy, since LeBron performs at the pivot position and his new position. With the return of Anthony Davis which will take place in the coming weeks, there is not much room left for the players on the bench …
Dwight Howard traded soon? We take the path with the Lakers, who in any case agree with this possibility. We expect changes in the coming weeks, and the racket is clearly targeted: the pivots are on alert.
