Jackson Gatlin (@Locked On Rockets) is joined by Mike Richman (@Locked On Blazers) to discuss Portland Trailblazers star Damian Lillard officially requesting a trade, what happens next, and why the team still gave Jerami Grant a 5-year contract. Why did Dame finally request a trade? Why would Portland still sign Grant to a 5-year deal knowing the trade request was coming? What's the most realistic trade outcome if Portland sends Dame to Miami? Are there any other teams that could be potential suitors?Then, Brendon Kleen (@Locked On Suns) stops by to break down the Phoenix Suns flurry of free agency signings out of the gate, re-signing Damion Lee and Josh Okogie while adding guys like Drew Eubanks, Keita Bates-Diop and Eric Gordon, and how the Suns plan to navigate Deandre Ayton's future. How important was retaining Lee and Okogie? Which of the new players is the most surprising signing? Who will wind up being the most impactful addition? What's the current read on the Ayton situation?Lastly, Andy Kamenetzky (@Locked On Lakers) jumps in to talk about the Los Angeles Lakers free agency additions, holding onto Austin Reaves without any interference from other teams (as well as D'Angelo Russell & Rui Hachimure) and adding new names like Gabe Vincent, Taurean Prince, Jaxson Hayes & Cam Reddish. How important was it to keep Austin Reaves in LA? Why didn't any other teams get involved in his restricted free agency market? How should the Lakers approach their starting unit next season? Are these signings enough to feel confident in catching up to the Denver Nuggets?#Blazers #Suns #LakersSubscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBAFollow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBASupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers: https://lockedonpodcasts.com/offers/PrizePicks – First time users can receive a 100% instant deposit match up to $100 with promo code LOCKEDON.
