Lakers trade reunion with former youngster would actually make perfect sense

The Los Angeles Lakers should seriously consider a trade to land Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma. It may not sound like the ideal trade, but it actually makes perfect sense, as it would give LA a tradable $20 million contract to work with in potential deals this summer. That would provide some elite flexibility.

Kuzma is having a fine season, and he could help the Lakers compete right now, but the most important part about a potential deal would be maintaining the contract slot. LA is going to be pressed financially moving forward, and they need to maximize things as much as possible.
