Bronny James hit the first three-pointer of his NBA career in the Lakers' win over the Clippers, giving Savannah James a proud mom moment.

Their offense couldn't miss, firing on all cylinders, and their defense was a brick wall, allowing less than 100 points in three of their last five games. The Lakers were up big by the end of the first quarter and did not look back.

The reported trade sends Lakers rookie Dalton Knecht, Cam Reddish, a 2031 unprotected first-round pick and a 2030 pick swap to the Hornets in return for the 7-foot-2 center, according to NBA insider Shams Charania.

The Trail Blazers would likely want to make room to have more minutes for Donovan Clingan, who they recently selected early in the 2024 NBA Draft. For the Lakers, meanwhile, Ayton could have at least some tangible valuable as a player who has postseason experience and tremendous size on the inside.

NBA trade frenzy has started well before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET deadline. All-Star players Luka Doncic, Anthony Davis, De'Aaron Fox and Khris Middleton have already found new destinations. The Los Angeles Lakers' acquisition of Doncic will go down as one of the most shocking and consequential trades in NBA history.
