Lakers considered potential destination for son of Celtics Hall of Famer
Summary

The Los Angeles Lakers are linked to a potential signing of the son of a Hall of Fame NBA guard. The Lakers aim to enhance their wing position and are reportedly interested in a player who has struggled with perimeter shooting recently. Despite his size being less than ideal, his defensive skills have gained attention. Insider Jovan Buha suggests that while there are attractive options, the Lakers may need to look for a more effective perimeter shooter this summer to elevate their roster.
