Why Lakers trade: Lakers get their rim running shot blocking center in Claxton and a decent perimeter defender in Okogie

Why Nets trade: Nets get expiring contracts and an unprotected FRP to help with their rebuild

Why Hornets trade: Hornets will probably draft VJ Edgecombe and will probably diminish Josh Okogie's minutes and role on the team and they could be looking to move him for draft capital
