No matter what you think of LaVar Ball, Lonzo is a great team player. He has great court vision and basketball IQ. At the moment he can’t shoot, but he won’t have to if the Lakers are able to acquire Kawhi Leonard and LeBron James.
He will be able to focus on the things he is good at.
He could become a point guard version of Draymond Green, so the Lakers should be happy the Spurs have no interest in him if you believe these reports via the Washington Post.
The question now is whether the Lakers even have enough to convince the San Antonio Spurs to send Leonard there. With San Antonio believed to be uninterested in Lonzo Ball, the Lakers have three other intriguing young players Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma and Josh Hart, plus their future first-round picks to include in a deal.
If the Lakers only have to give up two of the three names mentioned above, that is a steal for them.
