## Resource

Rob Pelinka went on a spending spree on Wednesday, and in a span covering roughly half an hour, signed up free agents Quentin Grimes, Collin Sexton, and Sandro Mamukelashvili. On top of it all, the Lakers traded for Walker Kessler from the Utah Jazz for unprotected first-round picks in 2031 and 2033 and first-round swaps in 2028 and 2030. Kessler has agreed to a four-year, $130 million deal. Mamu has agreed to a four-year, $52 million deal. Quentin Grimes has agreed to a four-year, $60 million contract, and Sexton a two-year, $19 million deal. So the question now gets asked: Where does this leave the Lakers in the Western Conference? Tune in as the guys from the LFB give their early returns on the activity and what this might say about the future of Rob Pelinka. Rob took Mark Walter's credit card and went to the free agent mall on Wednesday. Will it ultimately pay off?
