ESPN Insider Provides Report On Kyrie Irving & Lakers Trade Talks With Pacers

#1: Lakers trade rumors on Kyrie Irving and Pacers trade rumors: Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN revived Lakers rumors on Kyrie Irving trade talks between Los Angeles and the Brooklyn Nets that would likely involve a Russell Westbrook trade of some sort:

- They have two real assets to put out there to do a significant trade. That’s their 2027 and 2029 1st round picks, if unprotected, have a lot of value in the marketplace. The Lakers, I’m told, would be willing to do that in a Kyrie Irving trade, but that’s not something the Nets have been interested in.

Woj also touched on Lakers trade talks with the Pacers, saying that the Lakers “have not been willing” to give up two 1st’s in trade for Buddy Hield and Myles Turner.
