The Phones are Ringing! Lakers Inquire About Isaac Okoro

Chicago was supposed to be “big sellers,” a lie told about as often as Santa Claus. Isaac Okoro is the most recent name to draw some interest, but could this one actually materialize? We’re about 23 days away from the NBA trade deadline, and all we have so far are rumors and no real transactions. After Trae Young got dealt to the Wizards, we assumed the floodgates would’ve opened, but so far—nada. Why Do the Lakers Want Isaac Okoro? Per Evan Sidery, the Los Angeles Lakers have “...
