Lakers could have interest in trading for an All-Star guard that they previously loved in the draft.
While the Los Angeles Lakers hold major interest in trading for Cleveland Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell, could another member of the team be on the table?, Cleveland is preparing to evaluate whether to build around Mitchell or point guard Darius Garland. The fit between the two players hasn't been great and if Mitchell signs an extension in Cleveland, Garland could be moved.
"The Cavs are going to seriously evaluate the fit between Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland...I'm told if Mitchell does decide to stay long term, Garland's representation, they would have a conversation about the potential of a new home for him."The reason that Los Angeles comes into play here is that they may need an upgrade at the point guard position this summer.
"Garland and his agent, Rich Paul, lifted the smoke screen this week, however, as the guard granted private workouts to both the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers in L.A., sources told ESPN. Both workouts occurred prior to the Lakers' blockbuster trade Saturday for New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis, which included Los Angeles sending the No. 4 overall pick to the Pelicans, sources said.
