The Los Angeles Lakers have been very active this summer as they continue reshaping the roster following LeBron James' announcement that he would not be returning. The first major move came when Los Angeles acquired Walker Kessler in a trade with the Utah Jazz.
The Lakers followed that up with several key moves, including signing Colin ****** ton, Quentin Grimes, and bringing back Austin Reaves. However, the organization remains active on the trade market and could look to move Dalton Knecht and Jarred Vanderbilt.
"The Lakers are actively shopping Dalton Knecht and Jarred Vanderbilt in trade talks. After gaining two second-round picks in the Deandre Ayton trade, Los Angeles could consolidate those ****** ets in a deal immediately for a starting-caliber wing," NBA reporter Evan Sidery wrote.
Knecht could be looking for a fresh start after beginning his rookie season with the Lakers on a strong note. The former first-round pick was briefly involved in a trade to the Charlotte Hornets, but the deal was ultimately rescinded.
