No, he will still be hunted in the playoffs. Undersized and streaky. If we deal with Toronto it needs to be for GTJ or OG, but he is too expensive

It’s masai it’s not happening

Nobody asks himself a question: why would Toronto want DLo?

Fred is actually a pretty good defender at his position. He nearly make the all defensive team last season. I would take him over dlo in a heartbeat. Even if his shots are not falling, he find ways to impact the game

Dude is like a 40% career shooter. No thanks

Aggregate hits again. This is Buha’s opinion on the Lakers preferring to move Dlo if they can. He then speculates on a scenario where they go for FVV. Neither of these are things Buha said is 100% happening, just his “read on the situation”.

Why would either team hard cap themselves for either player lol
NoPin5154
Please just take gtj instead he fits so much better
dawgoooooooo
Everyone needs to prepare for the fact that we are going to sign him to a deal we feel ok with, he’s gonna play through the trade deadline and we may flip him then. I got no problem with that cuz he can definitely help win regular season games. We have nothing to trade with except dudes we want to keep (reaves rui etc) so we aren’t gonna be able to make any real moves

I’ve seen FVV shine in the Finals. Lights got way too bright for DLo, which sucks. We all wanted him to succeed.

Everyone in this sub acting like you can’t win a championship with FVV 😂 ummmmmm….
zhard01
This seems like a lateral move
UrbanCrusader24
Didn’t DLO’s back to back 3s and even that occasion where he made three of them in a row allows us to advance?
Look at Klay he played worse than DLO!

casuals showing up. vanfleet does almost everything better than dlo while also being a better defender, just a couple years older. i think he improves the Lakers

Vanvleet is a midget shooting guard who is getting worse at defense and efficiency after his knee injury. People are stuck in 2019 here
Odd_Raspberry745
I rather keep dlo
Ceezar1000
I mean it’s a upgrade from Dlow but he needs to get back to all star form

This is a perfect example of “the grass isn’t always greener on the other side”
I don’t think replacing Dlo with FVV fixes anything for us. The last playoff series FVV played he averaged 13.8 PPG on 35% from the field and 33% from 3. He’s a hot and cold player just like dlo. He might be a better defender, but when you factor in his small size he’s gonna get targeted in the playoffs anyways, he won’t be a defensive plus for us.
This is a lateral move IMO. Doesn’t really make the team better or worse

Anyone suggesting we receive a player via sign & trade has no idea what they’re talking about. The lakers cannot, & will not, hard cap themselves.

Would rather have Gary Trent Jr. or Bruce Brown. But FVV over Dlo is a no brainer.

I am maintaining that I will not get overly excited about any trade announcements until they actually come to fruition.

Does he really move the needle though?

One of these players can actually shoot in the playoffs. The other is DLo

…And do it in a hurry. Don’t let them think twice lol

Hurry and make this happen asap. Send Dlo to another country.

Fred can play point and get to the line. Durable. Remind me of Deron Williams. And he’s got a ring
