A good trade for the Pels, which could get better if they flip 4th pick for more assets. But reported terms (@wojespn first) are a GREAT deal for the Lakers, who get a top-five talent in AD who’ll be there long-term, & who will attract other blue-chippers, while keeping Kuzma.
L.A. responds to one thing-stars. Getting AD-who will likely lure another superstar to come with him, and I’m not going to be shocked if this puts Kyrie Irving seriously into play-along with LBJ keeps people flowing into Staples for years to come.
