The Los Angeles Lakers recently announced the acquisition of Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton from the Brooklyn Nets, and franchise icon Magic Johnson shared his thoughts on the move.

One stat shows the forward Dorian Finney-Smith has undoubtedly made a positive impact on the Lakers since arriving in a recent trade.

The Los Angeles Lakers have traded guard D’Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets for forward Dorian Finney-Smith and guard Shake Milton.

The thing that every Lakers fan is waiting for now is when they'll see Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton in action.

In Pincus’ massive trade proposal, the Lakers would send Vincent, Christian Wood, Jalen Hood Schifino, Cam Reddish, Jaxson Hayes, two future first-round picks, and removal of a Top 4 protected first-round pick to the Jazz for Sexton, Kessler, and Patty Mills.

Milton logged four points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and three rebounds over 16 minutes during Thursday's 114-106 win over the Trail Blazers. Much like Dorian Finney-Smith, Milton hasn't made much of an impact in Los Angeles since being traded to the Lakers.

A new trade proposal for the Lakers sees the team landing a $70M star player to help with the postseason push.
