Lakers Looking to Trade Jarred Vanderbilt and Dalton Knecht
Los Angeles has spent months exploring deals for the duo, with recent preseason rotation choices highlighting their current standing on the roster.
The Los Angeles Lakers have been actively attempting to trade both Jarred Vanderbilt and Dalton Knecht for months, according to reporting highlighted by BasketNews via NBA insider Jovan Buha.
Recent on-court decisions appear to reflect the front office's stance. During a preseason victory over the Sacramento Kings, the Lakers were shorthanded without Austin Reaves, Walker Kessler, and Collin Sexton, which left only 13 players from the standard roster available for the game.
Despite the thinned depth chart, Vanderbilt and Knecht were the only two active players who did not see the floor, underscoring their current status as the franchise gauges external interest ahead of the season.
