Former LA Lakers Champ Slams Rob Pelinka For Destroying Potential Dynasty; All You Need to Know
The team lost Montrezl Harrell, Kyle Kuzma, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and a first-round pick in exchange for Russell Westbrook in the disastrous Russell Westbrook 2021 trade. In addition, the trade put the team over the luxury tax, so they had to abandon their pursuit of Alex Caurso in free agency. Pelinka should have recognized the limitations the team was facing and found a way to acquire a ball-handler while keeping their homegrown, above-average guard in town, even though going over the luxury tax is the fault of ownership and not front office management.
The Lakers tried their best in the 2024-25 offseason to add a third superstar to the team to take the burden off LeBron James and Anthony Davis but they didn’t find any success in that. The Lakers brought in two players in the NBA draft, Bronny James and Dalton Knecht. Out of these two, Bronny is most likely to spend the majority of the time in the G-League.
