The Lakers could lose a critical piece from last season as they are two potential players ready to sign the free-agent SG

The Los Angeles Lakers had some excellent shooters, even when they have been hurting in the 3-point department, but one player helped the team end the Golden State Warriors dynasty.

The free agent SG Lonnie Walker is almost out of LA, as the Lakers are looking for a center and then thinking of closing their roster for the next season; there are no more signals of Pelinka wanting to re-sign the SG, which could become a fatal mistake.

According to an NBA insider, the Philadelphia 76ers and the Toronto Raptors are in discussions with free agent Lonnie Walker. Walker wants more playing time, and the SG could be walking away with Ham, probably not guaranteeing him that.

Walker was a critical piece for the Lakers, even when, in the last part of the regular season, mainly on the bench. But after Ham gave him one opportunity in the playoffs, he delivered and helped the team to make it into the WCF. Pelinka should avoid the big mistake of letting him go.

Magic Johnson wants Lonnie Walker back

The Lakers showtime era legend may not be part of the organization anymore, but he loves the team and recently said he was trying to convince the young SG to stay in LA
