What Happens to Bronny James Now That LeBron Is Leaving? Plus, Kawhi Trade Weirdness!

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 21:00:00 GMT

The assumption among many fans now that LeBron is out the door is that Bronny is soon to follow, or should be at least, whether that's because the Lakers push him out (why bother with him now that dad is gone) or another team acquires him as part of their LeBron Recruitment Pitch.

But is that how this is going to play out? Should it be?

The Lakers aren't going to release Bronny, knowing he's guaranteed $2.3 mil. And while he's not ready to be a rotation player yet, Bronny is still only 21 and made strides from year 1 to year 2. Would it be worth giving him another year to improve, and see what happens? Is Los Angeles the best spot for him, given the high expectations for the roster and relatively limited opportunities for playing time?

One thing is for sure, the hope here is that Bronny doesn't get treated like a prop joined with his dad, becaus that would undercut a lot of the work he's done over the last couple of seasons. At the least, you hope he has agency, so if he moves with LeBron, it's because he wants to.

Interesting situation for the Lakers.

Meanwhile, this Kawhi thing has gotten really weird in ways that actually felt kind of predictable.

Do the Lakers REALLY Not Want PJ Washington (If He's Available)? If Not, Why?

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 07:00:00 GMT

First things first - there's no indication that Dallas forward PJ Washington is actually on the market, but his name pops up all the time and in theory, there are reasons the Mavericks might want to move off his contract.

In theory.

But let's say it's true. Would the Lakers, who badly need a starting caliber forward (which Washington definitely) is, really not want to take on Washington because, as reported by Khobi Price of The California Post, they don't like his four year, $88 million contract? If that's the case, it would be very interesting to know why. Is it just a structural thing? Where in the new CBA you can't have three guys making what Luka, Austin and Kessler make and then add a fourth above $20 mil, per? Maybe there's an argument for that?

Is it a tax thing? Maybe there's an argument for that... though less of one now given who owns the team.

Maybe they just don't think Washington is that good?

Or maybe they like the upside-for-probably-less-money that would be Jonathan Kuminga?

Or maybe all of this is just smokescreens and lies!

These are the moments you really wish you could be a fly on the wall for personnel conversations.

Plus... is the potential circus of what might be LeBron's last season part of the reason the Lakers let him go?

HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky

SEGMENT 1: Do the Lakers really not want PJ Washington?

SEGMENT 2: What could be the reasons why?

Kuminga or Bust?

Walker Kessler Is Officially a Laker, and Sign and Trade Talk Around Kuminga Grows

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 07:00:00 GMT

The Lakers started into their business this week making official what was unofficial before. Tuesday, it was the business of finalizing the trade to send Deandre Ayton to Washington, before the Lakers used up their cap space, thus making Jaden Hardy aggregate-able in a future trade.

The Lakers have also signed Mamu, and Wednesday, made the Walker Kessler trade official. What's notable about all of this stuff is that there were no surprises in any of it. No last minute expansions of something like the Kessler trade. No happy acquisitions of extra draft capital or stuff like that. Which means we're all going to have to wait things out as the Lakers do the hard, potentially slow work of filling out the rest of the roster.

Which brings us to Jonathan Kuminga. Multiple reports indicate now that the Lakers are interested in Kuminga, and that Kuminga is interested in the Lakers. They just haven't found the right number, contractually (and the Lakers haven't yet found a way to clear the space for him, anyway). There's also a possibility of a sign and trade, if the Lakers and Hawks could agree on terms. One scenario would include the Lakers remaining pick swap in a deal that would net Kuminga AND excise Jarred Vanderbilt from the roster.

Would that be worth the cost (in money and (relative) treasure)?

HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky

SEGMENT 1: The Lakers are getting down to business.

SEGMENT 2: Is Kuminga as a sign and trade possible?

SEGMENT 3: How much is too much?
