Projected Lineup
PG: Austin Reaves/Chris Paul
SG: Luka Doncic/Gary Harris/Bronny James
SF: LeBron James/Andrew Wiggins/Kenyon Martin/ Adou Thiero
PF: Jarred Vanderbilt/Jake LaRavia/Torrey Craig
C: Myles Turner/Jaxson Hayes/Trey Jemison
Personally I prefer Myles Turner over Deandre Ayton but the price is much higher for Myles, Lakers might need to cut players to make this happen. Myles Turner can shoot from deep, Defend in the highest level to help the Lakers. In Deandre Ayton case Lakers can sign him for just $10.0 to $16.0 mil if they salary dump Kleber and Shake, His mobility and rebounding skill is what the Lakers looking for a Center.
Rob need to make a decision if he's keeping Rui and Knecht at the line-up or trading them for a better piece. I will not be shocked if they keep the core team and just sign few players that can be a rotational for the team.
For this scenario having Myles in the lineup Lakers can space the floor for Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, Help Luka if he got passed by and we still have a solid pieces for Defense.
Can this moves entice LeBron to stay at the Lakers and retire to the team?
