The Los Angeles Lakers are willing to cash in on their best remaining trade deals if the right deal comes together.

“We would make a trade for both picks if it led to sustained Lakers excellence,” general manager Rob Pelinka said Wednesday. “We would also use a pick to make a marginal upgrade if we felt that was the right thing to do.”

The CEO added that such a step would only be taken after much consultation.
