With @jovanbuha, talked about some of the Lakers options at center now that Mark Williams has fallen through, as well as if that deal falling through will end up being a blessing in disguise long-term.

More on this storyline
How Doncic’s and James’ opinions align on Hayes will be the first test of their partnership that could last months or go on for years, depending on how the rest of this season pans out. What is clear is that Doncic will have a say. And it wasn’t lost on James’ camp, sources said, that Pelinka prioritized Doncic’s involvement upon his arrival and immediately engaged in the Williams trade that he’d asked for, when James had for years wanted the team to trade its picks to improve its roster. -via ESPN / February 10, 2025
Former NBA point guard Jeff Teague knew something didn’t smell right from the start. Before the Lakers rescinded the trade, Teague said on his “Club 520” podcast that the Hornets must have known something about Williams’ medical situation that they were not disclosing. Otherwise, Teague felt the trade made no sense for Charlotte. “They got finessed, for sure. Mark Williams is a young big, but he’s always hurt,” Teague said. “So they like, ‘F–, we can get off this.’ They know something we don’t know, you know what I mean? You don’t just give up a big center, a young center averaging 15 (points) and damn near 10 (rebounds). It’s something they know that we don’t. That hip f–ed up, for real, you know what I mean? Like, he can get through it, but it ain’t gonna last long.” -via Larry Brown Sports / February 10, 2025
The team’s ability to pivot from Williams will be critical for this group’s chances, and limiting the fallout will allow L.A. to restore the momentum it has been building in the short term. As for the long term, without Williams but with Knecht and the 2031 first-round pick? “That was a lot [to give up],” a team source said. “We kind of dodged a bullet.” -via ESPN / February 10, 2025
