Williams is injury prone but that's a deal you have to make if you're the Lakers. Seems like they got an edge on everyone else.

WOW.

That's a full price but the Lakers are likely set at at PG and C for the next 5-6 years.

Love this for the Lakers.

Mark Wiliams is a freaking monster when healthy.

Hornets are so stupid for trading Mark Williams.

Poverty franchise for real.

This is a horrible deal for the Lakers. Mark Williams is very bad on defence. They just traded two 1sts and a swap for an oft injured pylon.

lol Charlotte tanking, who's gonna play C for them now after trading Nik Richards and Mark Williams? Moussa Diabate or Taj Gibson? They should sign Orlando Robinson if the Raptors don't.

That's a hefty price for a dude that's played less than 50% of the games.

Is Tidjane Salaun big enough to play the 5?

I thought Mark was one of their cornerstones? What are the Hornets doing? Poor Lamelo.

They got Williams for Doncic....The perfect C prospect to play alongside him.

How do the Lakers keep doing this? I swear to Christ the league is helping them.

Mavs give them a young superstar. Hmmm aging Lakers get another star. Wonder if that works for the NBA? Mavs owners get to move the team to Vegas (ya know where they live). Yeah the NBA is a very sketchy league and very much a business operation.

They're absolutely clueless, just no plan from one year to the next... They traded both their starting calibre Centers in Richards and Williams this season lol
