Lakers gifted chance to fix defense with trade for former Luka Doncic teammate

The Luka Doncic trade is the gift that keeps on giving to the Los Angeles Lakers. In addition to landing a new franchise player, the Lakers appear to have an opportunity to complete another trade with a dwindling Dallas Mavericks side that could address the pressing need for a wing stopper.

If a recent report proves true, then Los Angeles will have an opportunity to make an offer for elite isolation defender Naji Marshall.

Los Angeles has jumped out to a 22-11 start to the season that has it sitting at third in the Western Conference.
