(sabasports report)Lakers Team reporter Jovan Buha asked SAM Amick to join him on his show and talk about the current situation with the Lakers.
Speaking of the three young players mentioned by Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka in his press conference – Bruce Brown, Dennis Schroder and Rui At the 2023 midseason trade deadline, Buha said the Lakers might have been in talks with the Net to trade Kyrie Irving, but didn’t end up putting Bruce Brown on the table.
Buha pointed out that this is because the Lakers value Bruce Brown very highly, consider him a high trade value, and have long been favored by the Lakers owner and management. In fact, (Buha) believes the young player has also proved his worth in the subsequent playoffs.
The revelation illustrates the importance the Lakers place on their young player, Bruce Brown, and their apparent unwillingness to part with such potential. It also gives Bruce Brown more hope for his future with the Lakers.
