A former All-Star guard revealed that he didn't want to be traded to the Lakers.
The Los Angeles Lakers have been the mainstay for star players over the years in the NBA and they have used that to their advantage. The city of Los Angeles helps draw stars into the organization but sometimes, the cost of living in California can be a factor in a decision.
Teague was recently on Gilbert Arenas's podcast, Gil's Arena, and discussed a trade that almost went down. He was almost moved to the Lakers but declined due to state taxes. Teague also joked that he didn't want the pressure of playing for Los Angeles.
