The Los Angeles Lakers moved to bolster their backcourt on February 5, 2026, by acquiring guard Luke Kennard in a deal completed just hours before the NBA trade deadline.
In exchange, Los Angeles shipped guard Gabe Vincent to the Atlanta Hawks, according to the terms of the agreement disclosed Wednesday.
The transaction gives the Lakers a proven perimeter shooter while the Hawks add depth at point guard as the stretch run of the regular season approaches.
