Los Angeles Lakers
The Los Angeles Lakers made the blockbuster deal of the offseason by acquiring Russell Westbrook. There are rumors that this experiment might not be working but he would not have to be included in a deal for Malik Beasley. Los Angeles has plenty of other assets for that.
When looking at Beasley, he seems like the prototypical player that the front office has been looking for. Los Angeles has been able to improve the backcourt and this has been the goal moving forward.
The Los Angele Lakers are a championship team and Beasley would add some more firepower coming off the bench. This is what a championship team should be looking for.
Beasley would be able to continue to improve in Los Angeles under the guidance of LeBron James. There are worse situations to land. Going from Minnesota to Los Angeles should be a goal for Beasley if it is possible.
