The Los Angeles Lakers were one of the big winners in Tuesday’s NBA draft lottery, and they could parlay their new fourth overall draft pick into a potential trade for an All-Star.

One Los Angeles Lakers player was very happy.  

Mr. LeBron James. 

He tweeted his excitement: 

Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka said the team will either draft an impact player or try to see what it can get on the trade market after the team surprisingly leaped from 11th to fourth overall.

“This is a powerful asset for us,” an ecstatic Pelinka said on a conference call. “We owe a commitment to our fans to have an outstanding season next year. What this does is it gives us the ability to either select an impact player at [No.] 4 or possibly use this as an extremely valuable asset in trade.”

The Lakers are fixated on landing another max-free-agent star to help LeBron James, and they could have $32.5 million to use in free agency.

LeBron knows landing another Superstar player just became a whole lot easier after last night.
