Welcome to LA, Walker 💜

Lakers have made the Walker Kessler trade official

If anybody thought Lakers was getting kessler without no picks involved then ya ass delusional lol. Hell im still surprised they got him

McMenamin noted how part of the pitch to Kuminga is playing on a pay cut on the biggest stage for 1-2 yrs then recouping dollars. He pointed to Malik Monk who took a vet min and has made 100M since doing so.

Based on the sign n trade outlined for the Kuminga trade between Atlanta and the Lakers, with Vanderbilt going to atlanta at $12.428m plus the FRP swap 2032: In this specific framework, the salary Kuminga could be paid by the Lakers in the first season ranges from a minimum of $15.54 million up to a maximum of approximately $17.5 million. Minimum Salary (125% + $100K rule): To balance an outgoing $12.428 million salary, the acquiring team can take back up to $12.428 million \(\times \) \(1.25\) + \(0.1\) million \(\approx \) $15.535 million. Maximum Salary (Base + $5M rule): The maximum outgoing/incoming salary difference allowed for a player making between $6.53 million and $19.6 million is outgoing salary + $5 million. Therefore, the Lakers can take back up to $12.428 million + $5 million = $17.428 million (or slightly higher depending on the exact calculation variables applied). So Kuminga should get between $15.5m and $17.5m for his first year & it should be at least 3 years. I am guessing Lakers will give him the $17.5m since it means less appreciation to get him more money going forward.

I am told that the Kuminga deal to the lakers is expected to be completed by the end of the week.

@BounceBackTalk @DJJEWELSLIVE They are trying to complete the center deals and then do wing deals.

Are they trynna buy n sell centers? Lmaooo

The Jazz struck a deal with Mark Bartelstein of @PrioritySports and Greer Love on Wednesday to bring back the 7-footer who spent part of last season in Utah.

Free agent center Mo Bamba has agreed to a two-year deal to return to the Utah Jazz, sources tell ESPN.

Vando + the 32' Swap for Kuminga Dalton + Hardy + 2-3 2nds for Stewart You bring in Kuminga/Stewart + move off Vando + open up 1 roster spot as well

@LakeShowYo Send him to the heat

What should the Lakers do with Bronny?

Getting off Vanderbilt’s contract for just a straight swap while bringing back a solid player is a win. Get it done, @Lakers. 🙏🏼

@Wizelycook @DJJEWELSLIVE Kessler trade needs to be finalized

Getting off vando contract for just one swap?? That’s a win in it’s self.

Just sign Kuminga already lakers.

A decision from LeBron James on where he will play next is not coming soon, per @ShamsCharania. LeBron plans to spend this week continuing to hangout with his family and friends. The free agent market will continue to stay in limbo until LeBron decides, which could take weeks.
