Swaggy seems like a very nice guy, but as far as a basketball player, while he has spurts of good play, I don’t think anyone is going to be knocking down the Lakers door to take him off their hands.
The Lakers will likely entertain trade offers for Young. Any scenario remains complicated because of Young’s recent poor play and the possibility teams would want a draft pick in return.
Byron Scott doesn’t seems to care for him much on the court. Scott is old school and Swaggy is very much new school. Lakers will probably be stuck with him for a while unless they just decide to release him. In that scenario they will still be paying him and he will be free to sign with another team.
If you need to find Swaggy this offseason……..
Nick Young says he's ready to relax this offseason, get away from basketball, miss it again. If you need him? You can find him in Maui.
