Lakers Trade Rumors: Pelicans View Lonzo Ball As Starting Point Guard Who Can Become Star

Since Anthony Davis’ trade request from the New Orleans Pelicans, Lonzo Ball’s name has been among those mentioned as part of the Los Angeles Lakers’ potential offer.

While the Lakers reportedly were ‘adamant’ about not trading Ball in recent weeks, it is unclear if the circumstances have since changed now that Davis may be available.

As Ball is recovering from a Grade 3 ankle sprain that is expected to keep him out a total of four to six weeks, his camp reportedly would prefer if he was traded to a third team instead of the Pelicans.
