The Los Angeles Lakers are considering trading rookie Dalton Knecht to the Dallas Mavericks for center Daniel Gafford. Gafford, who has been effective this season, is currently sidelined with a knee injury that may keep him out for the rest of the year. Gafford has averaged 12.3 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks per game, contributing significantly to the Mavericks' success. His performance in the postseason last year helped Dallas reach the NBA finals as a fifth seed. The Lakers are open to trading Knecht, making Gafford a realistic target for the offseason. This potential trade could enhance the Lakers' frontcourt production.
