“People want the 2029 and 2031 picks just because of the uncertainty [around the Lakers’ long-term future],” Buha claimed in a new video post on his YouTube channel.
The team doesn’t have first-round picks this year or in 2027. However, they have first-round selections in five upcoming drafts that they might be able to use in potential trades over the next month. But it makes sense that teams are specifically eyeing their selections at the end of the decade.
Los Angeles Lakers future draft picks (First-round): 2026, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031
Lebron James will be long gone by then, and the picks also come after Anthony Davis’ current contract runs out. Who knows what sort of team they will be by then? But mortgaging the future to try and win another title now with James is something the Lakers have shown they are willing to do.
BLOCKBUSTER!!
Buha knows jack. He hasn’t been able to accurately predict a single thing all season…maybe ever? Whenever I see that clown’s name associated with anything I immediately pass.
