A few hours ago, FOX Sports Live jumped on Twitter to promote the appearance Yahoo Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski, even promising a #WojBomb.
What we got wasn't the type of #WojBomb we have come to expect from him, but it may be leading up to something big before Thursday night's draft. According to Wojnarowski, the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Lakers, who have reportedly been trying to work something out for weeks, have "exchanged possible frameworks of a trade." While Kings vice president of basketball operations Vlade Divac wants a haul, which could include some potential combination of Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle and the No. 2 overall pick, the Lakers don't appear to be onboard with dealing Randle and are "reluctant" about dealing Clarkson.
Wojnarowski is reporting that the Kings want to include forward Carl Landry and his two-year, $13.5 million contract in any deal. It is believed that the Lakers are pushing to get a deal done before the draft, but if nothing comes to fruition, they will decide between Duke's Jahlil Okafor and Ohio State's D'Angelo Russell at No. 2. Meanwhile, Sacramento is still open to pursuing other avenues.
