Los Angeles Lakers Receive: Jeremy Lamb
Indiana Pacers Receive: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, 2023 2nd Round Pick, 2024 2nd Round Pick
Jeremy Lamb has played just 10 games this season and is scoring 12.9 points per game while shooting 50.0% from three-point range. He has made six starts this season and would be sent to the Los Angeles Lakers to be a bench player and take some pressure off LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
This deal would give the Lakers some depth on the perimeter and a needed complementary shot creator off the bench. Jeremy Lamb has shown a real ability to be able to knock down catch-and-shoot jumpers while also being a microwave scorer.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is an intriguing name that would go back to Indiana. He has been used in a starting role for the Lakers so knows how to perform for a contending team. He would give the Pacers another dynamic on both ends of the floor.
Let’s take a look and see how this trade centered around Jeremy Lamb would benefit both the Indiana Pacers and Los Angeles Lakers.
