Kendrick Perkins Drops Major Prediction About Lakers Offseason Move

Kendrick Perkins made a really bold prediction regarding the Los Angeles Lakers, veteran Rajon Rondo, and this offseason. LeBron James’ team may see a big change this offseason if Perkins’ predictions come true.

According to Perkins, the Lakers will probably get All-Star point guard Chris Paul. Perkins believes that the Lakers will pull out this move. If you ask Perkins, he will say that Rondo will leave the Lakers this offseason. So, where will Rondo go? He will probably join the Los Angeles Clippers. That’s what Perkins said.

“To be honest, I think the Lakers are going to lose [Rajon] Rondo,” he explained. “Really do. I think the Lakers are going to land Chris Paul, I think Rondo is going to be with the [Los Angeles] Clippers and I think y’all gonna lose Playoff Rondo. I think that’s a guy that y’all are going to lose.”

Kendrick Perkins made the most reasonable prediction regarding the Lakers offseason

Perkins is confident that Paul will play alongside LeBron and Anthony Davis to create the Big 3 in LA.

“We all know how great of friends LeBron James and Chris Paul are,” he added. “Chris Paul has been on-record this offseason saying that his destinations are the Lakers or with New York. And I think he’s going to be a Laker, I’m telling you. I can see it happening right now, with Chris possibly coming up with a buyout if they can’t come together and get a trade done. I’m like 85 percent sure Chris Paul will be a Laker next year.”

Adding Paul would be a great move for the Lakers. The team won the 2020 NBA championship and they are definitely considered favorites to win the 2021 title.

Last season, Paul was averaging 17.6 points, 6.7 assists, and 5.0 rebounds per game. He has had great success in the NBA. Winning a title is something he would definitely like to do.

If Paul ends up playing with the Lakers, his dreams of winning a ring would definitely become real. Let’s see how will things develop in the upcoming season.
