Lakers Expected To Pursue Kevin Durant This Summer

@BleacherReport

According to Marc Stein of ESPN.com the Los Angeles Lakers will be amongst the teams pursuing Okalmaha City star Kevin Durant this summer in free agency.

Stein also stated their will be many other teams pursuing Durant this summer as well.

Stein reported that although these teams will pursue Durant he is likely to sign a one-year deal with the Thunder.

All year we have heard that Durant would be the hottest name on the market but could ultimately make more money if he opted in to one more in Oklahoma City.

Los Angeles is a much more attractive option than it has been in recent years. With young pieces D’Angelo Russell, Jordan Clarkson and Julius Randle to go with the number two pick in the draft there is some promise in LA. 

The Lakers have also hired young up and coming coach Luke Walton so Durant maybe more interested in Los Angeles than he would have been a few years when Kobe Bryant was still playing. 

As we approach the NBA draft and free agency we will keep you up to date.
