The Los Angeles Lakers are eyeing potential trades with the Portland Trail Blazers as they seek to bolster their roster ahead of the 2024-25 season. Currently sitting at No. 10 in the Western Conference, the Lakers are looking for a defensive center and a versatile swingman to support stars Anthony Davis and LeBron James.

Among the Blazers' assets, Robert Williams III and Jerami Grant are seen as prime targets. Williams could enhance the Lakers' defense, while Grant offers scoring and defensive capabilities. The Lakers' front office is expected to evaluate their roster after the 30-game mark, which falls on Christmas Day, before making any significant moves.
