2026-27 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

Well we need to find a target for the MLE next year. It could be Max Struss, Malik Monk, Dort, DDV, Okoro, DJJ…

Christie is going to be 24. Perfect age and fit for this team in my opinion. Even if in the future Carr and Adou start.

Luka / Sexton
Reaves / Christie
Carr / Grimes
Adou / Jake or Zaire
Kessler / Mamu

Reaves is the oldest guy on that 10 man rotation. In a year or two that could be a really loaded team and everyone would be sub 30.

 

This team has the makings of a mark walters team. Young and just gets after it. We essentially have great prospects in Carr and Thiero. We’re leaning into player development. And Bronny James is a part of that. We looked at OKC and we said we have to get young. We have to get depth. And that’s what we did.

I love that Kessler James and Sexton were all at the mini camp. I think Reaves was there to. Looks like the guys are into it.

loved what Kessler had to say. When this guy speaks. I like him more and more. He’s all about team.

I think the Jazz thing really bothered him the tanking. That’s why I said be careful how you make your culture with tanking. Because players won’t like it.

Kessler kept saying it’s so good to be here with this organization. With an organization that is about winning.

 

It seems like we should enjoy this team and this year first and let them play it out to see what we need. It feels like it's just too early to start thinking about next year with any certainty.

 

It's the offseason, it's the time of team building and planning. If we aren't going to talk about these things now, then when?

 

Always open to input about the Lakers

Keep bringing any and all

 

Seems like Carr is the talk of summer league.

Jim Jackson Raving. The Wing span Lakers got a good one.

Isiah Thomas NBA TV this guy should’ve got picked a lot higher than he was picked. The steal of the draft.

They were raving about him.

John Wall I like his athleticism.

When you look at him. The fit is exactly what we were looking for. That’s scouting.

Isiah Thomas I saw him tear up the combine.


He’s the kind of 3-D.

Jim Jackson when I look at him I see Mikal Bridges. Same build and everything. Who told you that after the draft???? Read my post.
