Why The Los Angeles Lakers Do The Deal 

The Lakers have a couple of motives in this deal. 

We’ll start with the future. They’re landing a protected first-round pick in 2027. Given that they just traded a protected first-rounder in 2027, that’s a valuable asset for them. 

With that said, this deal may help the Lakers in the present too. Martin is not as impactful of a player as Vanderbilt, but he may be a better fit with this roster. 

In other words, he can shoot. That’s the simplified version of this deal.
