The Los Angeles Lakers should target P.J. Washington next summer as the franchise attempts to remake their roster around Luka Doncic. The 6’7 forward thrived as a starter during the Mavericks' 2024 run to the NBA Finals, led by the Lakers' newest superstar. Washington is an unrestricted free agent in the 2026 offseason, and Dallas has Anthony Davis and Cooper Flagg locked in at the forward spots. Washington should look to move on and team up with number 77 in LA.
Doncic just signed an extension and is ready to lead the Lakers for years to come.
