Strengthen! This summer, Lakers, Pelicans and Bucks may involve tripartite transactions

This season, the Lakers finally tied for the third place in the Western Conference with a record of 50 wins and 32 losses, and successfully advanced to the playoffs. However, the current situation is not very friendly to the team. The team fell behind 1:3 in the series and was on the verge of elimination. In fact, this phenomenon is reasonable. It is mainly because there are big loopholes in the lineup. The team is weak in the inside and defense. The teams in the playoffs are not soft persimmons and will definitely be targeted by the opponent. In this case, it is naturally difficult for the team to achieve a better record in the playoffs.

I believe that no matter what the team's record ends this season, the management will strengthen the lineup, and they have also ushered in such an opportunity. Since the Bucks stopped in the first round this season again, it is only a matter of time for Antetokounmpo to leave the team. If Antetokounmpo can be introduced in the offseason, then next season will be a favorite to compete for the championship. At the same time, Antetokounmpo's youth will also allow the team to maintain good combat effectiveness in the next few seasons. In response to this situation, US media Sportskeeda proposed that the Lakers trade for the offseason to obtain Antetokounmpo and gave a good multi-team trading plan. Let's take a look at this potential transaction, as follows :

For the Lakers, if they can introduce Antetokounmpo, it will definitely be a big profit for the team. Antetokounmpo averaged 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.2 blocks per game, and performed very well. The combination with LeBron James and Doncic will form a historical Big Three lineup. The Lakers will jump to the top of the league on both ends of the offense and defense and will launch an impact on the championship. In addition, the combination of the three Big Three will drive the Lakers' home ticket price and live broadcasts across the United States, and may even attract more international sponsors; it can be said that Antetokounmpo's arrival will not only enhance the team's strength, but also bring great commercial value, which can be said to be a win-win situation.

The Bucks won: Zion, Reeves, Dalton Neicht, 2026 first-round draft pick (Lakes), 2030 first-round draft pick exchange (Lakes)

For the Bucks, it is a pity to give Antetokounmpo, but it is also a helpless choice. The team's reality can only be sent out. So what if you get it in this deal? First of all, Zion, as a young star, has very little potential, and averages 28.6 minutes per game per game in the season. .2 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.9 blocks. Although he performed well, injuries are issues that the team cannot ignore. If he stays healthy, then Zion will be one of the core of the team, otherwise he will be a marginal figure. Reeves has a comprehensive skill, dares to fight, can break and shoot, and dares to get on the body. He has very flexible steps, averaged 19.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 1.1 steals per game. As for Dalton Necht, he has good combat power and can improve the rotation depth. In addition, he has also obtained 2 first-round picks. It is conducive to the team to better strengthen the lineup and rise quickly.

Pelicans won: Hachimura, Gab Vincent, Maxiklebeer, 2028 first-round draft pick (Lakes), 2031 first-round draft pick (Pelicans)

For the Pelicans, after the team gave Zion, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages in the long run. After all, the team has been in a long run and urgently needs to enter the playoffs and increase morale. So what are the bargaining chips obtained in this deal? The Hachimura, Gab Vincent, and Maxiklebeer all have certain ready-to-play combat power, which can improve the depth of the team's rotation. In addition, they also got 2 first-round picks, which is also beneficial to the team's good luck.

Overall, this three-party transaction is still very good for all three teams. Everyone thinks it, welcome to discuss it!
