The Los Angeles Lakers currently possess the Western Conference's No. 6 seed following their recent 117-108 victory against the Miami Heat on Wednesday night, still clinging to their position as a guaranteed postseason team for dear life.

A proposed NBA trade would send LaMelo Ball to the Los Angeles Lakers for all of their top draft assets and more.

The Los Angeles Lakers find themselves in a very curious spot as we approach the NBA trade deadline. Los Angeles has looked like a true contender at different times this season but they have also looked very vulnerable at other times.

Alamedad’s trade proposal would send Gabe Vincent, Dalton Knecht, a 2028 first-round pick, and a 2029 first-round pick to the Hornets for Ball.

The Los Angeles Lakers have put themselves in a good position to make a splash ahead of the upcoming NBA trade deadline. Los Angeles has been one of the better teams in the Western Conference this season and now holds the cards to heavily go after another NBA title.
