This summer might be the most important off-season in the history of the Los Angeles Lakers. With a solid young core of players, ample salary cap space, and a potential top-3 draft pick, general manager Mitch Kupchak will have a ton of tools at his disposal to improve the team.
One of the main ways to improve, and add a big star is through a trade. The Lakers have already been mentioned in rumors for players such as Indiana Pacers forward Paul George and those will likely continue through the summer.
Of course, in order to acquire a big name, you have to give up some talent and in his press conference on Friday, Kupchak noted that nobody on the roster is untouchable:
