The Los Angeles Lakers, after acquiring Luka Dončić, are planning to trade for Derrick Jones Jr. from the Clippers. Jones Jr. is noted for his versatile two-way play, and adding him could strengthen the Lakers' perimeter defense and three-point shooting,

Dwight Howard was a big reason the Lakers won the championship in the bubble back in 2020. But despite finishing ninth in Sixth Man of the Year voting that season, the eight-time All-Star was sent packing the next year.

Los Angeles star Luka Doncic logged his second triple-double with his new club, posting 22 points, 12 assists and 12 rebounds, but he also had five turnovers as the short-handed Lakers fell to the Brooklyn Nets 111-108 on Monday night at Barclays Center.

D’Angelo Russell played a major role in helping the Nets upset a shorthanded Lakers team on Monday night. But Gabe Vincent, who played one of his best games of the season against Brooklyn, was not concerned about how the loss might affect the team moving forward.

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell is back with the Nets for the second time in his career. This time around, he can be himself again.
