The Los Angeles Lakers gain ground in their quest to sign Cameron Johnson
The Nets player is sought after by many NBA franchises, but the Lakers are close to securing his signing.
Something has to be done, and the signing of Cameron Johnson is the most appealing option on the market. Los Angeles Lakers need to strengthen their squad after their hardly understandable inactivity during the summer, but they could make up for it with a very significant signing for their interests, which would bring a qualitative leap to the team.
Few players are more coveted in today's NBA than accomplished 3&D specialists, like Cameron Johnson. This hard-working and talented power forward cannot remain in an embryonic project like the Brooklyn Nets; he could be a key asset for any contender. Los Angeles Lakers know this well, as they are actively competing for him amid fierce competition from other teams like the Kings or the Warriors.
Nevertheless, Lebron James' franchise is in the best position to complete the deal. In exchange, they will have to part ways with some Draft picks, young Schifino, and an important piece of their squad, whether it be Hachimura or Russell. Everything indicates that they will be willing to do so due to the strategic value that Cameron Johnson would bring to the team. There is still a lot of work to be done, both in the front office and on the Los Angeles Lakers bench.
