Los Angeles Lakers trade for Rui Hachimura from Washington Wizards

The NBA trade deadline is still 17 days away, but Washington Wizards and Los Angeles Lakers completed a deal today. The Lakers get recent lottery pick Rui Hachimura and the Wizards acquire three 2nd round picks (as well as the contract of Kedrick Dunn).

Pretty much a no-brainer of a deal for the LeLakers. The Wizards sell low on Hachimura and the Lakers add a nice piece without givng up any significant assets.

Sources: Lakers are sending the 2023 Chicago second-rounder, their own 2029 second-rounder and the Wizards/Lakers less favorable second-rounder in 2028 in the Kendrick Nunn-for-Rui Hachimura trade.
