It’s no secret that the Los Angeles Lakers want to make improvements by the halfway point of the 2023–2024 season. As a result, many NBA trade rumors have surfaced involving LA, mostly involving D’Angelo Russell and Hawks guard Dejounte Murray. The two celebrities had a moment together that increased the excitement.
The NBA trade rumors are never-ending, but the Lakers and Hawks players embraced.
On Tuesday night, Atlanta defeated Los Angeles 138-122. Dejounte Murray recorded 24 points, nine assists, and four rebounds, while D’Angelo Russell had a lackluster performance with just nine points and five assists. Following the game, the two celebrities said hello to one another and conversed briefly, as reported by Jovan Buha:
Fans are naturally making assumptions about the nature of the interaction on social media. Some X users are unsure about whether the Lakers should keep or trade the star guard, while others assert that Russell will be traded soon.
Whether their teams will complete a transaction by the deadline of February 8th is still up in the air. In any case, the Lakers need to figure out how to become consistent in the middle of a mediocre run.
