Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[KillerLeft]

Lakers have a ton of cap room, so they’ll get somebody (probably 3-4 decent players, tbh) - unless they botch free agency by tying their hands with an RFA.

My prediction, mostly because I'll believe LeBron James plays his final season(s) for the MLE as the 3rd-5th most highly paid player on his own team when I see it, is that the Lakers will get no significant free agents, not renounce LeBron's cap hold and end up sign and trading him wherever he decides to play for a very underwhelming "value."
