Los Angeles Lakers
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: PF Kevin Love
Cleveland Cavaliers Receive: G/F Danny Green, SG Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, C JaVale McGee
The Lakers are extremely low on trade assets, which means the best way to add talent may be to take on good players on bad contracts.
Kevin Love has entered the chat.
Reuniting Love and LeBron James would be a shock after James left the Cleveland Cavaliers two years ago, but the 32-year-old power forward proved to be a perfect stretch big man next to the four-time MVP.
Love put up 17.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game and nailed 37.4 percent of his three-pointers this season, and putting him next to Anthony Davis would help hide his defensive deficiencies.
Green, Caldwell-Pope (player option) and McGee (player option) are all on expiring deals, and Cleveland would likely try to move all three to contending teams for draft picks or young talent.
Depending on what, keep KCP (what am I saying, yep), he’s b not a star, but does play hard all the time.
