Lakers Trade For Lauri Markkanen?
Lakers need another reliable player that can help take pressure off both Lebron James and Anthony Davis. Lakers Trade for a Donovan Mitchell or Trae Young is all the hype and Lakers News Currently but Lauri Markkanen of the Utah Jazz makes a world of sense. The Utah Jazz have Markkanen available at the right price and if Lakers Nation can pull that off than the Lakers would be scary.

AD Markannen reaves lebron wood would be so good
Give Utah Everything they want to make this trade happen. It would set lakers up for the future. AD 31 & Lauri 26. Both still in their primes for the next 3-4yrs. Build around them with shooting & lakers championship window flys open.
Thank god you stopped touting Z Lavine. Good job!
Im sorry but lebron has to go. Lauri is a perfect guy for 3 spot alongside with AD and then sign nic claxton and jonas valanciunas.
Can we get marcus smart for reaves or gabe vincent?
lakers need a better 1 & 2, i would put b.i @ the 2 @ keep dlo
Lakers need a strong big man to handle Jokic
Makes sense but I don’t want him unless we get sexton with him. He will cost too much to get allow
I would say Markkanen is worth a whole lot more than Trae Young.
This dude is another Porzingus for the Celts. Tremendously talented, but spends more time on the sidelines due to injury.
Rui needs to pack his bags – on his way to Utah 😬
Yes Yes Go For Lauri Markkanen.. He will big for us if we can get him..
As a complimentary piece, – alongside a bruising center, drafting Xavian Lee, a quick defensive-minded SG, then absolutely.
Option 1 – get Lauri + murray + vet min
Option 2 – BI and true center
Option 3 – trae young and pieces
Lauri for Reeves is unrealistic. Gotta add more players.
It depends on the price
Laurie will command a high pay 💰 extension or resigning. He has the skills and efficiency to backup the pay.
Teams will pay laurie lots but what will it take to get him to lakers from a jazz perspective:
4frp and talented role player or players when matching.
Lakers could fudge by saying we give 4 picks by removing protections on the pick the jazz already have. Lakers will have max three more to add soon plus swaps.
Lakers could make a huge offer and Ainge would listen 👂
It will be very expensive but would be worth it from a lakers perspective.
Laurie is such a quality player and fit for any team and at his age just makes lots of sense. He very good which is why lakers should consider ainges ransom.
With that said, I don’t think this trade will happen. Lakers too cheap and jazz way high on Laurie. Totally get why both are high in Laurie.
Nice idea 💡
Lakere should fire rob pelinka after blowing up 2020 team
Getting another star on the Lakers is pointless because theyre going to have to change their game to accommodate LeBrons game. Unless the players game matches with Brons game perfectly, there is almost no chance of it working
Labron doesn't need to run the offense. He only takes control when he feels like the PG can't handle it.
Teams will charge us the “laker tax” which means they will try to fleece us. Teams hate trading with the lakers. Part of that is they hate rob pelinka.
🤣🤣🤣
Lakers should go all in for donovon mitchel. And sign andre drummond, howard
Line up
PG- Donovan Mictchell
SG- Max Christie
SF- LBJ
PF- AD
C- Andre drummond or Dwight Howard
Bench
PG- Spencer
SG- Reddish
SF- Prince
PF- Vando
C- Wood
All balance, they just need sign a great coach
Yall forgetting that players become sorry when joining the Lakers. Don't get too excited 😆
This will only work if the offense isn't Bron dominated,thy have to develop an offense tht infuse more players not just Bron dribbling the clock out and shooting logo 3s….
Did don’t need Trey Young. It’s not a good trade.
They need a big man Lauri ❤❤❤
The Rudy trade with him getting DPOY and playing excellent made Ainge look better IMO. All he needs to say is "Look what I did for Minnesota!" and he can get whatever he wants for Marketen.
We need a big an 2 more athletes
Lakers have enough assets to get a good deal done if they’re willing to trade Rui and AR. Markkanen and Murray is very possible. There’s some good centers coming up in free agency so the front office has to pull their head out their ass and make real moves or it will be another failed season.
He’s not gonna get the same looks with the lakers, y’all always ask why those players get worse once they play for purple and Gold. Yeah that’s just simply how they not operate he needs the ball too. If I was the Jazz i would build around him
Big mistake. Let’s please get a real center! Not a shooting big man. We need rebounds and defense and a guy that can bang with Jokic, Rudy, Joel.
I like him but I think it would be better post LeBron James
no way Lauri agrees to a 4yr 100M extension. he is miles better than Kyle Kuzma
Another soft ahh dude with no proven playoff experience; that’s why this team keeps failing cause Rob goes after soft guys!!! Dude not locking up ANYONE defensively and against playoff defenses he’s got no moves !! GTFOH…. Look to get Dejounte Murray & Clint Capela or SADDIQ
BEY!!! Tre is a no and Lauri is a no!!!
(REALITY CHECK The Lakers don't have enough assets to get him.
Bro you never stop. The eternal Lakers optimistic.
If he gets minutes
He’s the missing piece for okc
The problem is LeBron isn’t quick enough to defend on the perimeter anymore. It’s the same problem getting a center and allowing AD to play the 4 presents.
bruh if he comes to the lakers and plays worse idek at that point
Lauri would be an insane fit next to AD. Reaves, salary filler and a 1st rd pick should get the deal done
