Former NBA player Kendrick Perkins has recently teased Lakers fans with some spicy news. Perkins assured Lakers fans that the franchise would be bringing in a superstar for a much-needed refresh of the squad.
While fans are left guessing about who the star Perkins talked about is, many rumors have started to circulate about the Lakers eyeing a possible signing of Bronny James to keep their ace LeBron James happy.
Kendrick Perkins hints at superstar signing for Lakers in offseason
The Lakers have finally been able to get a hold of their performance after coming halfway through the season. They are on a three-game winning streak and their offense right now is in better condition compared to their early season struggles.
The franchise was urged by fans including the likes of Snoop Dogg to make some moves before the trade deadline. However, the Lakers remained adamant and revealed that they would not be thinking about any moves before the off-season.
The fans were disappointed by the decision and were open to expressing their feelings on social media. However, Kendrick Perkins stepped in and brought some relief and excitement to the fans of the Purple and Gold. Perkins revealed that a new superstar would be joining the 2020 NBA champions, and it would be of great help to Anthony Davis.
This information has the community speculating about who this new superstar may be. The general guess among fans is the Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young. There is no confirmation on whether it really is Trae or not, and the fans will have to wait until the off-season to see for themselves.
Lakers reportedly considering adding Bronny James to keep LeBron
It is rumored that the Lakers are considering signing Bronny James to their franchise. The rumors started to spread after it was revealed that the franchise’s ace LeBron James was not happy with the current situation of his team.
After continuous bad performances by the Lakers earlier in the season, Bron had openly expressed his dissatisfaction with how things were turning out. A few weeks earlier a cryptic message by Bron on his official X (formerly Twitter) account had all the fans worried.
It looked like it was time for “The Chosen One” to consider moving on to another home. The Lakers seemed to have bought into those rumors, and their rumored intention of signing Bronny James looks like a safety measure to keep Bron on board with them.
Bron had long revealed his wish to play with his son in the NBA before he retires. He turned 39 recently and there is no guarantee for the amount of years he will be able to continue playing. Jeanie Buss’ franchise seems to know this and is potentially planning a Bronny James move to keep their ace happy.
Who do you think will join the Lakers in the summer? Do you think that Bronny James will get a chance to play alongside his father? We are eager to know your thoughts, so drop down in the comments and let us know.
