The Los Angeles Lakers might still be in the running to land Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo in a blockbuster trade.

If the Los Angeles Lakers want to add a big man before the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline, they can take solace knowing plenty of them reportedly want to play alongside Luka Dončić.

WASHINGTON — Luka Doncic, and his historic performance in the nation’s capital, was the buzz coming of the Lakers’ season-best road win over the lowly Wizards on Friday night. But starting big man Deandre Ayton provided the best glimpse in a while of what the Lakers need from him to have a shot against the Knicks in Madison Square Garden on Sunday night.

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly on Milwaukee Bucks superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo's radar as a potential landing spot.

The Wizards took on the Los Angeles in the hostile road environment of…well…Washington, DC, and got stomped, 142-111. If you’re a Wizards fan — and you probably are if you’re reading this — fire this game into the sun.

With less than a week to go a lot of trade talk is out there, but the Giannis Antetokounmpo situation could hold up other deals.
