LeBron Out Lakers Target Kessler | NBA News

LeBron James is officially leaving the Lakers after 23 seasons, clearing the path for a massive free agency push—and potentially stealing Walker Kessler from the Utah Jazz. With LeBron gone, the Lakers now have roughly $50 million in cap space to pursue Kessler, who’s seeking a $140M, 5-year deal. Expect the Lakers to make a serious offer—possibly $35-40M annually—to outbid Utah, forcing the Jazz to reconsider. This move could reshape the league’s big man landscape and turn LeBron’s exit into a seismic offseason moment.
