Why This Trade Would Benefit The Los Angeles Lakers
There is no doubt that the Los Angeles Lakers have the best duo in the league in LeBron James and Anthony Davis. They are currently third in the Western Conference but they are not too concerned about their seed. With James on the team, they will always be there at the end. This is about adding depth and fire power in a spot that they need.
JJ Redick has been a winning player since he entered the league. He has missed the postseason just one time in his career and that was last season with the Pelicans. Redick is hoping that to make it two in a row which is why he would benefit greatly from a deal.
He knows how to play with other stars and do his role well. With the Pelicans, Redick has been coming off the bench and providing valuable minutes. This is what he would do in Los Angeles for a team looking to win another championship.

The Lakers have some options on the perimeter but they are extremely inconsistent. With Redick, you know what you were getting. This would lengthen the lineup in Los Angeles even further and continue to point them towards championships.
