The Los Angeles Lakers will bring in Tony Bradley and Tristan Thompson — who won a championship with LeBron James — for workouts.

He was waived by the Chicago Bulls in February. Bradley, 25, was drafted by the Lakers (No. Thompson averaged a double-double in both the 2018-19 and 2019-20 campaigns.

It’s the best way to watch player interviews, exclusive coverage from events, participate in live shows, and more! He has been openly campaigning to join the Lakers since the trade deadline though, and now he gets a shot to show them what he has left in the tank. The 32-year-old has not yet been picked up by a team this season, so it’s been a while since he’s seen NBA action. If they find a young guy they like and develop, they can also give a multi-year minimum contract with a team option for the 2023-24 season, which is what they did with Wenyen Gabriel and Stanley Johnson a year ago. With their 15th roster space, the Lakers have a couple of directions they can go.
