Clarkson is among the young big three the Lakers are banking on, the others being Julius Randle and rookie D'Angelo Russell. If not for injuries, Clarkson is perhaps the most consistent Laker on the team right now.Īside from that, there is the future to consider on the Lakers' end. Everyone knows the mileage that Clarkson has had since joining the team last year. Now, that is the angle that could spark some debate.
How about Lou Williams instead? It could work only that the Kings could ask for more. Roy Hibbert was the player being offered, but seeing that the Kings have a crowded frontline led by DeMarcus Cousins, that pitch may not exactly fit. It didn't take long, however, for his name to surface once again, and this time the Lakers are allegedly showing interest. Gay was initially believed to be headed to the New Orleans Pelicans for Ryan Anderson, but negotiations bogged down. The Los Angeles Lakers could be bringing in a key piece of the future if reports are true that Rudy Gay is on their radar.
