Besides this, there are certain NBA analysts and fans that believe a total rebuild would be good for the Lakers. LeBron James is not getting any younger and Anthony Davis is a genuine superstar who cannot stay healthy. Davis recently seemed to injure himself while making an uncontested dunk.
A complete rebuild would involve trading both Davis and LeBron for the best packages. But it’s interesting to wonder what teams will trade for 38-year-old LeBron James and injury-prone Anthony Davis.
The answer is no, the Lakers have invested too much in this team to start a rebuild this season. Besides that, the Lakers organization still believes it can compete for an NBA title soon. This moves rebuilding out of the picture with the Lakers set to give up even more assets this season.
