Although the Lakers were considered to be a championship-winning team before this season, the Lakers have not been able to play a good enough record so far this season, but this Lakers are estimated to be difficult to promote blockbuster moves and improve the team lineup before the trade deadline.
But according to the US media Jovan Buha and Bill Oram, the Lakers will still trade or buy out one of the two players de Andrew Jordan or Kent Bazemore, which is considered the "next most likely move" for the Lakers after trading Horton Tucker or Kendrick Nairn.
After releasing Jordan Jr. or Bazemore, this will also create a better lineup rotation for the Lakers, after all, so far this season, Jordan Jr. and Bazemore have not played an important role in this Lakers rotation lineup.
On the other hand, according to Los Angeles Times reporters Broadrick Turner and Andrew Grave, Terrence Rose is considered a "more realistic goal" for the Lakers before this year's trade deadline:
Sources said a more realistic target for the Lakers is Magic mob Terrence-Theis. The Lakers need to get Rose in the case of sending Horton Tucker and, perhaps, future first-round picks. ”
The 31-year-old Rose has averaged 11.1 points and 31.3 percent three-point shooting so far in this game, but his outside shooting ability will indeed be more suitable for this Lakers.
Finally, according to the US media Brian Robb, the Lakers have offered Horton Tucker and a future draft pick to the Celtics in exchange for Josh Richardson:
It's no secret that the Lakers want to send Horton Tucker away, and a player like Richardson who can help the team at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is really a good choice.
