Los Angeles Lakers: 5 players worthy of trading a first-round pick for

Terry Rozier, Charlotte Hornets

The Charlotte Hornets are absolutely the one team that could change the NBA Trade Deadline and turn it upside down. If you look at their current roster, there are probably 3-4 difference-makers that could be moved. Even though there has been some pushback on that idea, the struggling Hornets should probably explore the idea of it if nothing else.

One of the players that the Hornets could move at the deadline is Terry Rozier. If the Hornets are going to retool their roster or shift toward a brand new rebuild around LaMelo Ball, Rozier could be one of the talented veterans that could be on the outside looking in.

The 28-year-old is having a very solid season in Charlotte, averaging 22 points, six assists, and five rebounds per game on 41 percent shooting from the field. Rozier is a player that the Lakers could commit to and give this core an extended window.
