The Los Angeles Lakers want to compete again, and they want to do it soon.

The free agent market has some goodies this summer, but L.A. will also be looking for upgrades via trade. According to Bleacher Report's Kevin Ding, that could mean Detroit Pistons point guard Brandon Jennings leaving the Motor City for Hollywood.

If the Lakers were to target Jennings and get Stan Van Gundy on the phone, they might find a very willing partner. Van Gundy brought in Reggie Jackson midseason and it's expected that he'll re-sign with the Pistons as their point guard of the future. This means a less than guaranteed future between Jennings and the Pistons.
