The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly considering trades involving Jarred Vanderbilt and Dalton Knecht as they work to finalize their roster ahead of the season. Both players participated in a recent minicamp in Slovenia but have struggled to meet expectations, with Knecht’s prior trade to the Hornets being rescinded due to a failed physical. Vanderbilt’s two-year, $48 million contract complicates potential trades, while Knecht’s lack of production has limited his playing time. The Lakers aim to address roster gaps, particularly after missing out on Jonathan Kuminga.
