The Los Angeles Lakers have had a very strong first offseason under their new regime of Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka. They had a very strong 2017 NBA Draft, receiving a strong grade from ESPN’s Chad Ford. The team and their fans are hoping that the next move the team makes is acquiring Paul George from the Indiana Pacers.
Interest from the Lakers has picked up in recent weeks. After George told the Pacers he would not be returning after this season, he added that the Lakers were his preferred landing spot.
