Newest Trade Rumors for Suns Fantastic News for Lakers Supporters The developments involving their division rivals must be exhilarating for the Los Angeles Lakers.
With the 2024 NBA Draft and free agency approaching, the Los Angeles Lakers are working to bolster their roster for the upcoming campaign. In an attempt to put together a roster around LeBron James and Anthony Davis worthy of a championship, they most likely will be active in the trade market.
The Western Conference is so heavily stacked that it is a major barrier to their championship success. The Lakers have fallen short against the Denver Nuggets in their two previous postseason encounters; however, they will also have to contend with up-and-coming teams like the Thunder, Timberwolves, and Mavericks, in addition to seasoned squads like the Suns, Clippers, and Warriors.
The shocking news that the Houston Rockets are considering a trade with the Phoenix Suns for Kevin Durant or Devin Booker was revealed by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Tuesday night. They purchased Phoenix’s future first-round picks from the Nets in order to use them in a trade with the Suns, all in the hopes of achieving this goal.
There is no indication that the Suns are actually considering moving Booker or Durant, as far as we are aware. It goes without saying that they would lose their status as the Western Conference favorites if they managed to move one of them. Teams are preparing trade offers for Phoenix’s stars, though, which suggests that the Booker-KD combination might not last for very long.
The Suns underperformed greatly in the playoffs, losing to Minnesota in three games despite being viewed as a superteam at the start of the season. The Suns may be forced to rebuild after another slow start to the 2024–25 season and let go of their stars. The Lakers may now be the favorites in the Pacific Division going forward as a result of this.
