If Kyrie Irving gets traded to the Lakers, it is thought that the package made by Los Angeles would include Russell Westbrook. According to NBA insider Jake Fischer, such deal would not be limited to just the Nets and the Lakers and more teams would be involved.
He also made a point that the purple and gold have some leverage in negotiations due to the fact that there isn’t much interest in Irving from other NBA teams.
Fischer: One thing Lakers have in their back pocket is there isn’t much interest in Kyrie around the league
