The Los Angeles Lakers continue to look for ways to improve their roster this offseason following the addition of DeAndre Ayton at center, and their next target appears to be Andrew Wiggins of the Miami Heat.

The Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James do not appear to be on good terms currently. Plenty of reports have come out that suggest the two sides could part ways. Some think a trade might occur. Others simply think that James will play out the final season on his contract and either leave for another team or retire next offseason.

The Los Angeles Lakers have done one really weird thing since the public began speculating about a possible LeBron James trade. L.A. has yet to acknowledge publicly that James opted-in to his player option for 2025-26 to play the upcoming season for $52.

The Golden State Warriors are a veteran-laden team in win-now mode, and they reportedly have the inside track toward adding another notable older player to their roster this offseason.

The latest Lakers rumors indicate that Los Angeles is about to be dealt a blow by the Warriors when it comes to landing a five-time All-Star.
