Marc Gasol

The Los Angeles Lakers have hit the ground running, ever since the trade rumors began, it was expected that the Lakers would lose a host of their players. But it turns out to be in the opposite way for the defending champions. After Denis Schroder, Lakers have not stopped improving their roster. They signed their rival’s, Clippers, center, Montrezl Harrell. However, they didn’t stop there. They also acquired Milwaukee Bucks’ Wesley Matthews in free agency 

Even KCP has been re-signed. But now the race has begun between the Lakers and the Clippers for veteran Marc Gasol. However, it looks like the Clippers and Lakers are battling it out for more players. 

Marc Gasol to Lakers, Clippers or Warriors? 

According to Marc Stein, “The Clippers have joined the race for free-agent big men Serge Ibaka and Marc Gasol, league sources say Gasol is considered the more realistic target given the fierce competition for Ibaka headed by Toronto and Brooklyn”

And now the Lakers are speculated to be in the run for Gasol too. “The Lakers also seek one more big man, league sources say, but they face much tougher financial constraints in the chase for Gasol after signing Montrezl Harrell away from the Clippers and re-signing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope,” Stein also tweeted. 

There were rumors that the purple and gold also wanted Serge Ibaka. However, the Clippers have already made their move for the star. As per Adrian Wojnarowski, “Free agent Serge Ibaka plans to sign a 2-year, $19M deal with the Clippers, a source tells ESPN.” 

It looks like the LA teams are trying to one-up each other. With all these enormous changes, which one of them will outplay the other and perform better in the 2020-21 season?
