After a wild NBA season that saw the Los Angeles Lakers start slow, add Luka Dončić and eventually surge to 50 wins and the West's third seed, they were eliminated by the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. Behind a monster 27-point, 24-rebound performance from Rudy Gobert, Minnesota won 103-96 on the road to end the series in just five games.

Throughout the course of the 2024-25 campaign, Turner averaged 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists, to go along with two blocks per game. He shot 48.1% from the floor and 39.6% from 3-point range. Turner would be the best possible option for the Lakers.

The Los Angeles Lakers are officially out of the 2025 NBA Playoffs. On Wednesday night, Los Angeles dropped a 103-96 decision to the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 at Crypto.com Arena.
