It seems like Andrew Wiggins being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers this offseason is a long shot. Lakers insider Jovan Buha said Monday during a question-and-answer session, "I don't know if Wiggins at this point is looking realistic" given what the Miami Heat are asking for in return.

There has been talk for at least a week that they have been angling to trade for Andrew Wiggins, a two-way wing who currently plays for the Miami Heat. Wiggins was an All-Star starter and won an NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors in 2022, and he could potentially make L.A. a title contender.

According to Lakers insider Jovan Buha, the Miami Heat, who currently hold Wiggins’ contract after a separate deal with the Warriors, have set a steep asking price. The Heat are reportedly demanding Dalton Knecht, Rui Hachimura, and a future first-round pick in exchange for the 30-year-old Canadian forward.
