Los Angeles Lakers Receive: Derrick Rose, Wayne Ellington, Deividas Sirvydis

Detroit Pistons Receive: Kyle Kuzma, Alex Caruso, Jared Dudley, 2023 2nd Round Pick, 2024 2nd Round Pick

Derrick Rose would be an intriguing depth piece sent to the Los Angeles Lakers in this deal. He is a veteran presence that would be able to contribute right away for a team looking to contend.

Wayne Ellington and Deividas Sirvydis are two other names that would be going to the Lakers in this deal. Sirvydis wouldn’t do anything for Los Angeles but Ellington’s sharpshooting would certainly come in handy alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

The Lakers would be able to help the Pistons retool their roster for the future. Kyle Kuzma and Alex Caruso are two young players who would help Detroit immediately. Two second-round picks would also be sent to Detroit and could be used in many ways.

Let’s take a look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away this season.
