The Los Angeles Lakers appear poised to shake up their roster through a trade, as all players with player options have returned for next season. The rumor mill is buzzing with names like DeMar DeRozan and Jerami Grant linked to the franchise, but one standout player consistently rumored with the Lakers is Trae Young. Despite his undeniable talent as an All-Star guard, recent reports suggest that Young is unlikely to join the Lakers next season. While the market for Young is currently quiet, there may still be a possibility for a deal in the future if the price is right. Vice president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka has shown a willingness to trade first-round picks for the right deal, indicating that the Lakers are open to making moves to improve their team. As the team prepares for upcoming summer games, Lakers fans may see changes in the roster to build a contender in the Western Conference for the 2024-25 season.
