One of the biggest struggles the Los Angeles Lakers have faced has been regarding their playmakers, as the biggest signing in the offseason, Gabe Vincent, has been available only 6 games out of the 36 the team has played in the campaign.

In the six games that Vincent played, he wasn't able to make a real difference, making many fans and even the organization miss a player like the point guard Dennis Schröder who was a big part of the team's success in turning the season around after the disastrous start of it.

Recently D'Angelo Russell was sent to have a coming off-the-bench role, showing how the team doesn't have great playmakers, leaving most of that responsibility to LeBron James.

But now fans want to see Schröder back as he is reportedly having a bad time with the Toronto Raptors. With information via Michael Grange: "Dennis Schroder reportedly wanted to lead his team and was unhappy about coming off the bench in Toronto before the Immanuel Quickley trade." GM Rob Pelinka could use that discontent to make a trade for Schröder now that the team urgently needs a guard like the German star who in the summer led his National team to win the FIBA World Cup.

LeBron James' future could be back in Miami

A recent report by ESPN's Brian Windhorst said that the Miami Heat are scouting Bronny James, LeBron's son who will be available to be Drafted the next offseason. LeBron has stated one of his ultimate goals is to play alongside Bronny on the same NBA team, so if Miami drafted Bronny, LeBron could be back to the franchise where he got to win two NBA titles alongside Dwyane Wade.
