So the Lariva deal too high to be the BAE?

Haynes on NBA TV saying Lakers are going to sign Melton and then seemed to allude to them signing Ayton.

Wonder what that means for Brook.

Horst to whichever guard strikes out in free agency

Lakers should want Ayton and Brook for depth. A S&T of Brook for Rui sounds perfect.

It will never happen but it would be great.

Lakers Max salary is 8.1 million left in the MLE per Marks. At the very least we can be competitive if we are the only 2 bidding.

FWIW, Bucks Realm guy is saying he is hearing we are actively pursuing Ayton due to the Lakers favoring Lopez.

Porter Jr back. Can't tell if it's out of the MLE or BAE.

I think this is fine. He's a flawed player but this is a value deal for a player of his talent level.

Boom that’s the big one. Hopefully that is a firm 2 year deal

I've also never seen a GM as in love with handing out player options as Horst
