American News: The Lakers need to get Wiggins, and he has three-pointers that the team needs to be the best defender

08-21 Blog host of Los Angeles Sports Center & reporter Cem Yolbulan said that the Lakers should trade for Andrew Wiggins.

He said: "Wigkins can immediately become the Lakers' best outside defender, and he can take on difficult defensive tasks every night. He has the three-pointers and defensive skills that the Lakers need, and when holding the ball, Wiggins can do much more than an average three-point shooter."

Wiggins' salary in the 2025-26 season is expected to be $28.2 million, and the salary in the 2026-27 season is expected to be $30.1 million.

Last season, Wiggins averaged 30.7 minutes per game with the Warriors and the Heat, scoring 18 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists.
