An NBA insider just dropped a bombshell proposal: a blockbuster four-team trade that could send Stephen Curry to the Lakers! Fans are already buzzing about the possibility of Curry joining forces with LeBron in L.A.
For the past few weeks, Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James fans have been fantasizing about a way James could team up with Stephen Curry on the Purple and Gold. The two superstars just led Team USA menβs basketball to an Olympic gold medal, and even though both are very deep in their 30s, theyβre both still playing at an elite level.
Of course, a trade that would land Curry on the Lakers would be extremely complicated and nearly impossible to pull off for several reasons. The Golden State Warriors, Curryβs current NBA team, would demand tons of compensation from Los Angeles, and Los Angeles simply doesnβt have a lot of viable trade assets.
Eric Pincus, an NBA insider for Bleacher Report, proposed a four-team trade involving the Lakers, Warriors, Detroit Pistons and Brooklyn Nets that would team up James and Curry as members of the Purple and Gold.
The trade proposal
The Lakers receive: Steph Curry (from Warriors), DayβRon Sharpe (from Nets), Wendell Moore Jr. (from Detroit Pistons) and a $3.9 million trade exception (Jalen Hood-Schifino)
The Warriors receive: Austin Reaves (via Lakers), Ben Simmons (via Nets), 2029 unprotected first-rounder (via Lakers), 2031 unprotected first-rounder (via Lakers) and a $2.4 million trade exception (Curry)
