Heavy news: According to the famous NBA analyst James Piercey further reported, the Orlando Magic gave a good trade chip in order to get Westbrook, including Gary Harris, Terence Ross, Mohammed Bamba, Chuma Okeki, and the Magic won Westbrook, 2027 first-rounder, 2029 first-round swap rights. Since the Lakers have many rumors about trading Wei Shao, the authenticity of this news needs to be verified, but for the Lakers, trading Wei Shao does need to be cautious. Wei Shao has proven his strength in the bench position, the ball is in the hands of Wei Shao, he is still a first-line star in the league, Wei Shao's huge contract will expire next year, the Lakers can negotiate with Wei Shao to reduce Wei Shao's salary space, then Wei Shao is still a good choice for the Lakers.
For the Lakers, a trade must be made to win the championship, and Wilson does limit the space for the Lakers to trade. For now, it will be interesting to see whether the Lakers risk a trade with an increasingly good West, or whether they will steadily break into the playoffs and finally trade them in the offseason. This issue does require caution for Lakers management Pelinka.
