The Lakers need to fill the gaps.

And two names stand out immediately:

Khris Middleton.
Mitchell Robinson.

Middleton gives you exactly what every contender needs.

Shooting.
Shot creation.
Playoff experience.

Then there's Mitchell Robinson.

Length.
Rim protection.
Rebounding.

One spaces the floor.
One protects the paint.

Together? They address two of the biggest weaknesses on the roster.

The Lakers already have the stars.

Now it's about building the right team around them.

Austin Reaves could be in line for a massive payday.

According to reports, Reaves is seeking a maximum contract from the Lakers worth up to $239.25 million over five years, and it's unclear whether he'd be willing to accept a discount to stay in Los Angeles.

Reaves has developed from an undrafted role player into one of the Lakers' most important pieces, becoming a consistent scoring threat and a key secondary playmaker.

The timing makes the situation even more interesting.

With LeBron James nearing the end of his career and the Los Angeles Lakers building around Luka Dončić, Los Angeles faces a difficult decision about how much they're willing to invest in Reaves long-term.

One thing is clear, Austin Reaves believes he's earned superstar money. Now the Lakers have to decide if they agree.

Sometimes the biggest draft mistakes are obvious from day one 😳

Jayson Tatum has gone on to become an NBA champion, Finals MVP, multiple-time All-Star, and one of the faces of the league.

Looking back, it’s hard not to wonder what Lakers history would’ve looked like if he had ended up in purple and gold.

Apparently, Kobe Bryant was wondering the same thing.

Some players just have “it” from the beginning. 🐍🏆

The Lakers may be preparing for a future that doesn't revolve around LeBron James.

According to Lakers insider Jovan Buha, Austin Reaves is viewed as a bigger offseason priority for the franchise than LeBron. The reasoning is simple: Reaves represents the long-term future, while LeBron is a short-term solution.

"Reaves is more of a priority for the Lakers than LeBron is. That's just a fact," Buha said.

The 28-year-old guard is entering the prime of his career and fits perfectly alongside Luka Dončić. After averaging 23.3 points and 5.5 assists per game this season, Reaves is expected to have a significant market if he reaches free agency, giving him leverage that LeBron simply doesn't have at this stage of his career.

For Los Angeles, the decision may come down to investing in the next five years rather than the next one.

And for the first time in two decades, that could mean choosing someone over LeBron James.

Bronny James took a real leap in Year 2.

And the biggest part? The efficiency.

The game looks slower.
The decisions look sharper.
The confidence is growing.

That's usually the first sign that a young player is figuring things out.

Not the points...
The efficiency.

Because once a player starts making the right reads and converting opportunities consistently, the next step becomes obvious.

More minutes.
More responsibility.
More production.

Next up? The minutes.

And if the minutes come...

The PPG will follow.
