According to Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer, the Los Angeles Lakers are looking to trade small forward Kent Bazemore by this year’s trade deadline:
“The Lakers are searching to find Kent Bazemore a new home after he opened the season as a starter,” Fischer wrote. “And while it’s believed Paul Millsap would prefer to land in Chicago, having a connection to [Chicago] Bulls lead executive Arturas Karnisovas from their shared Denver days, Los Angeles has been mentioned as a suitor for Millsap should he reach the buyout market.”
In 29 games, Bazemore is averaging 3.9 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game while shooting 33.9 percent from the floor and 37.1 percent from deep.
