After falling short in the Western Conference Finals the Los Angeles Lakers rumors this summer are already running rampant. This is a team that might be a few key additions away from not only making it to the NBA Finals but winning championship No. 18.
One of the key assets that the Lake Show has this offseason is the 17th overall pick. The team got its own pick back from the New Orleans Pelicans after finishing with a better record and there are multiple directions to take. Initially, it seemed like the Lakers would look to trade down from the 17th pick and add multiple picks later in the first round.
