Lakers target Mamukelashvili and Grimes to support Luka Dončić

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly looking to sign Sandro Mamukelashvili and Quentin Grimes to bolster their roster around Luka Dončić. After LeBron James opted not to return to the team, the Lakers’ president Rob Pelinka is prioritizing backcourt depth and frontcourt reinforcement. Mamukelashvili averaged 11.2 points with Toronto, while Grimes struggled but has a career shooting percentage of 36.6%. Both players would fill gaps left by departing free agents. The Lakers aim to finalize deals as they enter a new chapter with Dončić as the franchise's centerpiece.
