Sources: Lakers trading center Thomas Bryant to Nuggets

The Los Angeles Lakers are trading center Thomas Bryant to the Denver Nuggets for Davon Reed and three second-round picks, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

L.A. receives Denver's second-round picks in 2025, 2026 and 2029, sources said.

Bryant signed a one-year deal with the Lakers this summer after missing most of the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons due to a torn ACL. He's started 25 games this year, averaging 12.1 points and 6.8 rebounds while shooting 44% from 3.

Bryant, 25, gives Denver more frontcourt depth as the team hopes to make a deep playoff run in a now-loaded Western Conference.
