NBA Trade Idea Gives Lakers' LeBron James, Luka Doncic New All-Star Teammate originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Lakers were the third seed in the Western Conference this season. They faced the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the playoffs and had home-court advantage in the best-of-seven series.

The Dallas Mavericks won't want to include PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford in any trade talks, predicts NBA insider Marc Stein.

According to a writer, there is a sentiment toward the Lakers following the Luka Doncic trade that may force them to overpay in a trade this summer.
