3 Players who should be targeted by the Lakers in the 2019 free agency

Jamy
2018 NBA Summer League - Las Vegas - Detroit Pistons v Los Angeles Lakers
LeBron James will be looking to bring a championship to LA

#2 Klay Thompson

2018 NBA Finals - Game Four
Klay Thompson is one of the best shooters in NBA history

Who can forget his 37-point quarter against the Kings or his 60 points in 29 minutes against the Pacers. Klay Thompson might be the most efficient scorer in NBA. Give him the ball when he is hot and it will definitely be raining buckets from everywhere.

He is one of the best two-way players in the NBA. He gets the responsibility to guard the opposition best guard and then score 20+ points on the offensive end. He fulfills both these roles with ease. He is the perfect teammate in any setup. He doesn't need the ball to be effective and anyone would love playing with him on the team (especially LeBron and Lonzo).

Klay Thompson is also an LA native and has been linked with the Lakers over the years. His movement from the Warriors would break up the splash brothers and would weaken the Warriors on both ends.

With Klay only 28 right now, LAL will be the favorites for the remaining three years of James's contract. The Lakers management should make signing Klay a priority and for the LAL followers, LeBron James passing to Klay for the corner threes would be a wondrous sight to behold.
