Kevin Love is the top prize on the open market, despite Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor saying the team doesn’t plan on trading their all-star.
If the Los Angeles Lakers aren’t successful in acquiring Love, they might turn their attention to Deron Williams.
Another target for the Lakers is veteran point guard Deron Williams, who has been subpar for the past two seasons in Brooklyn. Williams, former perennial All-Star, wants to get out from his current situation with the Nets in hope of reviving his career with a championship contender team.
Sports Illustrated reported the Nets could consider putting Williams on the trading block, if the point guard continues to push his request
Acquiring an aging Deron Williams probably isn’t the best thing for a Lakers team in rebuild mode, but he’s a definite upgrade at point guard.
