IMPORTANT (The Lakers would uplift the protection of their 2027 pick owned by Utah from Protected 1-4 to Unprotected.)
The Lakers pair up the Rich Paul client in a realistic scenario that lands them an ideal center next to AD with rebounding, shot blocking and a Bruiser to go against elite centers in Walker Kessler as well as creating the cap of 5.2 mil to sign Tyus Jones who is arguably a better playmaker to replace D’Lo. The Bulls even though say they have to keep him are still desperate especially for only giving up two seconds. This trade in which a scenario where a little bit of tooling could be amazing. A change could be made where instead of the Lakers giving up two seconds it would be the Bulls but I digress
