Ryan Lopez+FollowLakers’ front office faces major shakeup?The Lakers’ recent slump has fans and analysts pointing fingers—not at the players or coaches, but straight at GM Rob Pelinka. Despite a hot start, LA’s roster now looks outmatched in a league favoring youth and athleticism. One NBA analyst claims the team’s lack of shooting and speed is a direct result of Pelinka’s decisions, and warns that if things don’t change soon, even stars like Luka Dončić could want out. With ownership less tied to Pelinka than before, could a big front office move be the spark LA needs? What do you think: is it time for a new GM? #Sports #Basketball #Lakers00Share
