Lakers Reportedly Eye Lonzo Ball Trade as Deadline Approaches

LeBron James and Anthony Davis express concerns over roster, while Lonzo Ball emerges as a potential target for backcourt depth.

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly considering a trade for Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball, according to multiple sources.
Ball, a former Lakers draft pick, has returned to play this season after missing over two years due to knee injuries and multiple surgeries.
Currently averaging 6.4 points, 3.7 assists, and 1.6 steals, Ball is seen as a versatile defender and secondary playmaker despite struggling with shooting consistency this season.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis have reportedly expressed concerns about the Lakers' ability to make impactful moves before the February 6 trade deadline.
The Lakers are weighing their options, including potential trades involving Jarred Vanderbilt, but remain cautious about parting with future first-round picks.
