Ahead of their crucial Game 3 at home versus the Boston Celtics Friday night, a report dropped stating the Lakers are monitoring Trae Young’s situation with the Hawks and would be interested in pursuing him.
Heavy.com’s Sean Deveney reported that an NBA executive says “If the Hawks don’t make a move in the summer, the Lakers would be a possibility next season.”
Rumors have been swirling around all season about possible disconnects with management and his teammates. Young is currently under a five-year contract worth $215 million.
