3 NBA Superstars the Lakers Should Target After Anthony Davis Acquisition

The Lakers finally got their man, landing Anthony Davis from the Pelicans in a blockbuster deal that saw them send Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart and a trio of first-round picks the other way.

Now that the dust is beginning to settle on the deal, it's time to look at the rest of the Lakers' offseason. Here are three players they should target after the AD deal.

1. Kemba Walker

Portland Trail Blazers v Charlotte Hornets / Streeter Lecka

Kemba Walker is an icon in the city of Charlotte, but will the Hornets do enough to make the team contenders? Probably not, so perhaps Walker could end up in LA, as he's set to hit free agency this offseason. The Lakers will have around $30 million to spend, and Walker is reportedly their top priority in free agency.

2. Kyrie Irving

Boston Celtics v Indiana Pacers - Game Four / Andy Lyons

It's believed that Irving will sign with Brooklyn, but perhaps the Lakers' recent transaction could lure him to LA. A trio of Irving, Davis and LeBron would be a nightmare for opposing teams, and would certainly make them favorites to win the NBA Finals. Would Irving bail on Brooklyn for a shot at a title in LA?

3. Jimmy Butler

Toronto Raptors v Philadelphia 76ers - Game Six / Mitchell Leff

While the Lakers most glaring need is surely at point guard, perhaps they address the wing during the offseason. Jimmy Butler will be available in free agency and the Lakers would be wise to go after the tenacious star. He's effective on both ends of the court, and his defense would be a big boost for the Lakers.
