    New Collin Sexton Scouting Report! Great Energy, Scoring. Shaky Defense, Decisions

    During the 2025-26 season, the Lakers' bench, to put it generously, lacked scoring punch. Some of this was the byproduct of continual injuries, which kept someone like Rui Hachimura, arguably best utilized as a three-level scoring sixth man, in the starting lineup more often than not. Some of this was the byproduct of someone like Dalton Knecht, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Gabe Vincent (pre-trade) not being a reliable enough source of points when given the rock. Some of it was the byproduct of someon

    New Walker Kessler Scouting Report! Can the new Lakers Center Handle Increased Scrutiny?

    It cannot be overstated how much is riding on Walker Kessler's impending success and fit with the Lakers. It's not simply how much the team needs the skills the center brings, particularly on defense, where he's considered by many to be a budding All-Defense candidate. They also paid a handsome price (literally and asset-ally) to land Kessler in a sign-and-trade with the Jazz, who were not widely expected to let him leave. Two first-round picks. Two first-round swaps. Plus, four years, and $130M

    Cameron Carr and Adou Thiero are Summer League Standouts. Ready for Lakers Rotation?

    The Summer League Lakers are undefeated in Las Vegas, cemented by Thursday's 102-85 beatdown of the Chicago Bulls. Tournament play awaits, but in the bigger picture, could the stars of this team play actual roles with the big club? Who are the main characters in question? First-round rookie Cameron Carr, whose three-level scoring, off-ball comfort, wingspan, and refined athleticism make him feel likely (if not probable) to be in next season's rotation. Second-year player Adou Thiero, whose ex

    Lakers Still Targeting Jonathan Kuminga, but also Matisse Thybulle? (Guest: Jovan Buha)

    The Lakers, in need of more depth along the wing, have reportedly been in talks with both the Atlanta Hawks and free agent forward Jonathan Kuminga about a potential sign-and-trade for at least a few weeks. But he's apparently not the only target in mind. Marc Stein reported that Matisse Thybulle, who's been linked to the Lakers in the past, is also on their radar. Which one is more gettable? Who's a better fit? And what does newly ex-Laker LeBron James have to do with all of this? Insights on

    Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves' Leadership of Lakers' New Era. (Guest: Mike Trudell)

    It's officially the Luka Doncic era in Los Angeles, and not simply because the roster was completely revamped with a goal of building properly around him. (Successful mission? Time will tell.) Doncic is now the franchise face operating without LeBron James (and for these specific purposes, Marcus Smart) as a leadership presence and voice. He, along with Austin Reaves (clearly also considered a foundational piece), will need to grow even more as culture setters and examples for accountability, be

    Mark Walter and Rob Pelinka's VISION for the Lakers, Luka. (Guest: Anthony Irwin)

    The Lakers are now a year or so into the "Mark Walter era," which happens to coincide with the official start of "the Luka Doncic era." More than ever, all the decisions made about the roster and basketball will revolve around what's best for Luka. With all that in mind, what can be read into the offseason that includes... A massive roster makeover... New faces like Walker Kesler, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Quentin Grimes, Collin Sexton, and Ziaire Williams... Younger... Potential offensive jugger
