The Los Angeles Lakers have been exploring an interesting trade deal with Sacramento Kings as their needs intensify.

The Los Angeles Lakers are out of the race on many top trade targets, and could face competition with a new player mentioned in trade rumors.

Trade talks are heating up for the Los Angeles Lakers. Dillon Brooks is a name being discussed. The Lakers want to add a strong defender. Brooks fits the bill. He can guard top players. This would help LeBron James and Luka Doncic.

A former Lakers scout is skeptical that team executive Rob Pelinka will build a team around Luka Doncic that will win the NBA championship.
