The Toronto Raptors are expected to trade Bruce Brown by next month, per @SmithRaps



Do you think the Lakers should try trade for him? If so, what would you be willing to give up? The Raptors subreddit is saying the Lakers would likely be one of the main suitors and have good assets to get him.

    Now, he is too expensive. 23M is wayyy massive.

    I don’t think we have the assets. Rui? Maybe Dlo and picks in a S&t but they wouldn’t do that.

  3. Odd-Direction9452

    We should absolutely get him if we can. Perfect world DLo opt in and trade to Toronto.

    Team option, he’s being traded for a team to decline the option. We’re not a team looking to dump salary, so I doubt we jump.

    Curious to see what he gets as a FA this year not coming off a title run with another below average shooting year.

    Well let’s see. Considering Browns contract we’d have to sign and trade Dlo which would mean Dlo wants to go to Toronto (unlikely)

    We could package something like Rui and one of Gabe or Reaves along with a pick (Not worth the assets)

    I do like Brown but much like the Garland rumors it’s just cost prohibitive to make a move like this one when we have other needs. In this case whatever we move ends up creating another hole in our roster unfortunately

    No but hope they find someone to take him, keep their money tied up so they let GTJ walk. If we can get a MLE he has been my dream

    Any trade w/o a proper coach just seems stupid. But that being said I would consider picking him up later in the trade window but definitely not the first.

  8. ControlForward5360

    No not for the asking price and contract value. It would put the lakers in cap space hell with how the team is constructed

    Yeah let’s trade for a overpaid garbage jokic merchant. Giving up assets as well

  10. A guard making 23 million that can’t shoot lmao nah

  11. runninthruthe818

    Just like Bron got hella people paid – Jokic will also. Great players elevate the ones around them. Bruce Brown aint the one lol – 23 mill is CRAZY

    No he will come to the lakers and forget how to play.
