Lakers target Jonathan Kuminga in three‑team trade with Hawks and Bucks

The Los Angeles Lakers have been linked to former Atlanta Hawks forward Jonathan Kuminga as a top offseason priority. A three‑team proposal drafted by Rohan Roman would send Kuminga and center Jericho Sims to Los Angeles, while the Hawks would acquire Milwaukee’s Myles Turner. The Bucks would receive Jarred Vanderbilt, Jake LaRavia and a package of draft picks that includes a top‑five protected first‑rounder in 2029, as well as second‑round selections.

Under the plan Kuminga would sign a four‑year contract worth roughly $85.5 million, and the Lakers would part with two second‑round picks (2031 and 2033) to the Hawks. The deal remains speculative, with hurdles noted for each club, but it outlines how the Lakers could add athletic wing depth alongside Luka Doncic.

Both articles describe the same hypothetical trade structure and its potential impact on the teams involved.
