Lakers interested in former Knicks star?
In need of changes to its roster, the Lakers could call the Warriors. The San Jose Mercury News reports the Purple & Gold could be interested in adding former Knicks star David Lee from Golden State. The issue is what the Warriors would get in return from Los Angeles. The rosters don’t match up well for a trade.
In addition to that, Lee has a HUGE $79,537,680 contract left. With salaries of $11.6 mil next season, $12.7 mil, $13.8 mil, $15.0 and $15.4 million through 2015-16. Lee averaged 16.5 ppg and 9.8 rebounds during his first season in the Bay Area.
The report says Jerry West could also try to package Lee with Monta Ellis in a blockbuster deal.
