Jacob Rude (SB Nation) On Walker Kessler’s trade value:
“Over the offseason, the price was high for teams inquiring about Kessler. According to longtime NBA reporter Marc Stein, the asking price for Kessler was two first-round picks. And that’s not a first round pick and Jalen Hood-Schifino, who so many of you are down on. That’s two real first round picks.”

Jovan Buha (The Athletic) On Lakers’ interest in Kessler
“I think we need more time to see which guys become available. I think Walker Kessler is a name that the Lakers have been interested in that would make a lot of sense and would allow you to either start a two-big look or, probably more realistically, bring him off the bench and then play two-big shifts and then, in certain matchups, close with two bigs. Jerami Grant, Bruce Brown, Dorian Finney-Smith, Cam Johnson, the guys they’ve kind of gone after or been interested in in the past.”

  4. I think DLo has been disappointing so far he needs to step up, yes he getting assists but we need scoring and defense

  5. Depends on what the Jazz wants in return. We're kinda good right now. We just got Koloko back, he's no Kessler but let's see what he can do first.

  6. D'lo's usage rate is down, but he's our best shooter. Stop trying to trade him. If anyone should be traded look at Wood, Hayes, JHS, Reddish, and Hayes.

  7. Yes. Maybe. 22 years old only, possible all defense level player, perfect contract for Lakers. Can they also add Sexton for tiny bit more, open a spot, shed little salary?

  8. Kessler scored 4 points today. Not worth 2 first. A package with 2 first round picks you can get a player like T Young wish is way better than Kessler
