One blockbuster trade the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers should make right now.
The NBA offseason has officially reached its dog days. The NBA Draft has come and gone and a majority of the top free agents have found new homes. At this point, the only major roster shakeups would come via trades.
So, in the next month, Portland should find a landing spot for Grant — and there's no better one than the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers were ousted by the Denver Nuggets in the first round of this past season's playoffs, and as LeBron James and Anthony Davis continue to get older, the time is now for L.A. to make a move to turn their roster into a true championship contender.Grant is a perfect player to join James and Davis in Los Angeles. Grant is a 6-foot-7 stretch four who shot 40.2 percent from deep last season, and is a career 36.4 percent shooter from 3-point land.
The Blazers have an overflowing backcourt thanks to recent success in the draft. Anfernee Simons, 25, is in the third year of a four-year, $100 million deal. While he's continued to improve as a scorer at the NBA level, he's struggled to stay healthy. Last year, he appeared in just 46 games for Portland.
