Stein also reported that the Lakers are expected to offer Dragic a max deal if he hits the free agent market this summer.
“The Lakers, meanwhile, also have coveted Dragic for some time and likewise are said to be intent on testing the Suns’ resolve when it comes to their Slovenian point guard. Sources say L.A. plans to chase Dragic this summer anyway with an aggressive four-year offer that would be valued as high as an estimated $80 million if it approaches max-contract territory.”
As the Lakers look to move on after this rough season Dragic seems to be in their plans. With the Suns nervous that Dragic could walk away this offseason for nothing, they may be inclined to move him now.
The Houston Rockets are also interested in the guard. If the Lakers were to trade for Dragic now they will likely pay a heavy price.
Lakers fans what are your thoughts? Should the Lakers purse Dragic now or later?
