Lakers draft rumors were kicked off when an NBA league source hinted to Sean Deveney of Heavy.com that Los Angeles might be buying a pick in the 2022 NBA Draft:
- They can see the writing on the wall, they need young players. They’re often one of the teams looking to buy a second-round pick when they have a guy they like, as they did with Talen Horton-Tucker. It’s a safe bet that they will look to buy a second-rounder this year as they’re looking to get younger however possible.
