  2. This is awesome – can’t have him leave for nothing

    Either trade or lose his offensive skill set

  3. Whether we for sure trade him or for some reason keep him, this is two summers in a row he’s done us a solid. Take it easy on the slandering on this dude

    Hell fucking yes! This is so huge!

    Not picking up the option would’ve been a disaster for us.

    Trade him or build a roster that can deal with his inevitable playoff drop (Trade him)

  6. quwin123

    Bro waited for Dejounte to get traded first

  7. ShowTimesFinest

    Whether he stays or gets traded, this is a W. I don’t see a possible MLE player that’s better than DLo

  8. Proof-Umpire-7718

    Let’s go. Now we can make some trades.

    There were so many people who were adamant he wouldn’t pick this up.

    Who else was gonna give him $19m this year?

    Best case scenario for D’Lo and the Lakeshow, this gives us a lot more versatility whether it’s keeping him in P&G or in a trade.

    Honestly pretty happy so far with the offseason gotta say, DLO comes back, we get a solid pick in the draft, and we got rid of ham for a guy who seems to REALLY care about doing well for the team

  12. Odd-Direction9452

    Perfect. Let’s get a trade done in the next 24 hours

  13. Gristle__McThornbody

    Pop the champagne, fam. This is a major W for the Lakers. Now we hold much needed flexibility in the trade market. Worse case we run it back with Dlo.

    Between Knecht and this it’s been a great week in Lakerland
