Right now, things are not going well for your Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are currently 17–17, and it’s no secret that a trade involving the Purple and Gold is imminent. According to an NBA executive, LA is just one wise move away from being the season we anticipated, and this player might be available for the right price. Sean Deveney of Heavy.com receives word from an unidentified front office executive that the Lakers will not have to pay a high price to acquire former All-Star and Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward. One NBA executive told Heavy Sports, “I don’t think he is a guy you have to give up a first-rounder for.” And they require that. Someone who will assist NBA executive informed Heavy Sports. And they require that. Someone who will lend a hand without jeopardizing the future. Though obviously desperate, so what? Examine their track record. Gordon is in the last year of a four-year, $120 million contract with the Hornets. This is his contract year. He will be an unrestricted free agent after this season, so both parties could benefit from this possible trade. Gordon is attempting to demonstrate that he can still assist a contender while the Lakers attempt to win their 18th championship.
