Please comment your thoughts on this realistic trade where the lakers let go of avery bradley and KCP and sign in FA vanvleet with the cap space created and kuzma is sent to memphis to join the young core of morant and jaren jackson jr. Kuzma will be delighted in memphis and memphis will likely accept the deal considering how howard dominated the paint with the lakers and kuzmas talent + the picks add more value
