Heading into the 2025 NBA offseason, the Los Angeles Lakers have a lot of work to do. They have Luka Doncic and LeBron James leading the way, but they need to add more help for their two superstar players.

One writer suggested that the Lakers target an under-the-radar wing in free agency who currently plays for the Clippers.

The NBA world was shaken to its core on Sunday when the Orlando Magic and Memphis Grizzlies pulled off the first of what should be many trades this offseason.

The LA Lakers need a center, and that's no secret, but they also need to replenish their wing depth with a two-way presence.

“Honorable mentions: Orlando’s Goga Bitadze (two years, $15.3 million for 2025-27); Brooklyn’s Day’Ron Sharpe (potential restricted free agent); Luke Kornet (unrestricted free agent); Larry Nance Jr. (unrestricted free agent); Precious Achiuwa (unrestricted free agent),” Price wrote.

The Lakers are likely to bring back two-way players Trey Jemison and Christian Koloko next season, Jovan Buha of The Athletic said in a recent video Q&A session (YouTube link, hat tip to BasketNews).

Lakers Urged to Trade for Center Luka Doncic Would 'Thrive' With originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Lakers acquired Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks in February in one of the most shocking trades in sports history.

The Lakers’ taxpayer mid-level exception (projected at $5.2 million) might not be enough to lure him from Boston, where he’s a beloved figure and 2024 champion. The Lakers’ pursuit of Horford hinges on their ability to sell him on a final championship run while Boston goes through a gap year.
