As NBA reporter Jovan Buha of Buha's Block has since noted, the Lakers will be hard-pressed to get a deal done without including a future first-round pick. Including a pick that far into the future for a non-star is difficult to stomach. Wiggins' arrival helps offset the deadeye shooting Los Angeles loses in Hachimura and fortifies the perimeter defense. Best-case scenario, the Lakers nabbed a cheap wing who can check top perimeter assignments and knock down threes. He has a deeper offensive bag than advertised—which includes burying ultra-difficult threes—doesn't receive enough credit for how much he competes on defense.
