The Los Angeles Lakers ended a disappointing season with missed playoffs and playoffs this season. From winning the championship in 2020 to only ranking 11th in the West this season, there is no doubt that the Lakers need to make changes this summer, and sending away Westbrook has become the consensus of the outside world. Now the US media has listed 5 major trades for Westbrook, both with the Rockets for Wall, with the Pacers for Brogdon and Hield, and with the Hornets for Hayward and Rozier, etc., of which the trade with the Pacers is the most recognized by fans.

The Lakers need to trade away Wei Shao, and there is no doubt that Wei Shao is still a good player, but there is no chemical reaction between him and Zhan Mei, and it is still not suitable for the Lakers.
Meiji Shahin Ourian posted on social media asking Lakers fans which kind of Westbrook trading plan they prefer, and the US media listed the Lakers' trading plans with 5 different teams, based on the feedback information of fans. The Lakers' trade with the Indiana Pacers was the most recognized, as Brogdon had excellent offensive ability and Hield was the top shooter.
Of course, it is not so easy for the Lakers to trade away Wei Shao, but Wei Shao only has a one-year 47 million US dollars expiring contract, which still has a lot of attraction.
It's also possible that Westbrook will eventually stay with the Los Angeles Lakers, who have previously expressed a desire to joke with Brother Brow and James, so the Lakers may give him the opportunity to do so.
What kind of initiatives the Los Angeles Lakers will take to continue to build a championship-level lineup around James and thick eyebrows remains to be seen. The key to the Lakers' operation is how to get the right players around them, and we'll see if Pelinka and the Lakers management can do that.
