Sacre Possible Trade

With the NBA Draft less than three weeks away, 

the Los Angeles Lakers have been working out 

numerous prospects including Jahlil Okafor, 

D’Angelo Russell and Emmanuel Mudiay.

Shortly following the NBA Draft, the Lakers will be major players 

in free agency with ample cap space. However, the Lakers will 

need to make decisions on their current players and according 

to RealGM’s Shams Charania, they are expected to pick up 

Robert Sacre’s team option:

The Los Angeles Lakers expect to pick up center Robert Sacre’s veteran-minimum team option, league sources told RealGM.

In addition, Charania shares the Lakers could potentially be looking into re-working a longer team deal with the 26-year-old center:

Sacre — solidifying himself as a viable reserve big man and defensive presence in three NBA seasons — has lost 15 pounds since the end of the Lakers’ season. He is under a guaranteed option at $981,348 for next season, and there’s a chance the Lakers could look into reworking a longer-term deal with the 26-year-old.
