Oscar Gonzalez+FollowWarriors Snatch Lakers’ Top Free Agent Targets?Looks like Dub Nation might be stealing the show this offseason! According to Marc Stein, both De’Anthony Melton and Al Horford—two key targets for the Purple & Gold—are now expected to sign with the Warriors. The Lakers’ playoff struggles exposed their need for perimeter defense and depth behind Ayton, but missing out on Melton (if healthy) and Horford could sting. Meanwhile, King James reunion rumors with the Cavs are officially dead. Is this a big blow to LA’s title hopes, or can Hayes step up? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers50Share

Rich Paul reached out to Luka’s camp before dropping that statement about LeBron’s future, showing real respect between The King and The Don. But the real story?

Is this how legends get phased out? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers41Share
Theresa Boyd+FollowDid Lakers Drop the Ball on DFS Deal?Laker Nation, are we already missing Dorian Finney-Smith? Letting DFS walk to the Rockets—especially on a deal that’s only guaranteed for two years—feels like a huge miss by Rob Pelinka. Not only did Houston get a defensive ace for Luka’s old running mate, but King James and Doncic now have even more pressure on D. With Finney-Smith unhappy about how things ended in LA, did the front office just hand a rival the edge? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers90Share
Nicole Rasmussen+FollowLeBron Dances w/ Bad Bunny? Lakers Shade! 🕺LeBron James was spotted partying with Bad Bunny in Puerto Rico, looking totally unbothered by all the Lakers trade rumors.

Patrick Gonzales+FollowTruth Hurts: The Ayton Gamble in LAThe Lakers just landed Deandre Ayton, but The Truth himself, Paul Pierce, isn’t buying the hype just yet.

EchoEchoEcho+FollowLakers front office, don’t blow this shotWatching the Lakers sleep on Brook Lopez would be an absolute travesty. The dude’s still a defensive anchor and raining threes like it’s nothing—exactly what we’re missing in the paint! Age is just a number when you’re swatting shots and stretching the floor at this level. If Rob Pelinka lets this one slide, it’s another classic front office brick. How do you not bring the hometown big back to chase a ring with King James? Who else is tired of watching us miss out on perfect fits? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers103Share
summersivan+FollowCould the Joker Join Luka in LA?Laker Nation, is it too early to dream about a Luka-‘Joker’ duo? With King James’ era winding down, the front office seems laser-focused on the 2027 free-agent sweepstakes. Rumor has it, Nikola Jokic—the Joker himself—might be the big fish. If Denver slips and Jokic wants a new challenge, imagine him running the show with Luka. That’s a combo that could flip the West on its head. Would this be the most unstoppable pairing since Shaq & Kobe? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers105Share
