Who are the Pelicans gonna get?
I would assume the lakers will be better this year than last because they have draft capital to improve the team but I guess next years draft is better
Bronny locked at 17
Is that pick unprotected?
Without that last sentence, this is one confusing tweet. I know that Woj means Los Angeles when he types LA, but both the Pelicans and Lakers are from LA.
The Lakers are about to get someone good from that pick arent they?
Come home Bronny
Downstream impact of LeBron bouncing the lakers
This draft is so bad, that 17th pick might be 2nd rounder most years.
Better draft next year, probably an earlier pick next year as they keep getting older. Plus a new an inexperienced head coach.
We’ll get bronnyyyyy
People are acting like this is a big deal for the lakers when draft analysts aren’t sure the top players in this draft can start on a good team. Total non story. Maybe the 17th pick will be good but based on draft projections they will not be
Could they be making moves because lebron is a “free agent” now?
They have their own pick in the same range. Teams like the Pelicans probably don’t want two first round picks outside of the lottery in this draft taking up roster spots.
It would be very pelicans if the Lakers end up as the first seed next season
