On top of that, the Lakers’ front office seems a bit hesitant to bring in new players as they probably fear that they might have to give away their last remaining first-round picks to acquire the talent they need. However, amidst all this, there is perhaps a ray of light for Lakers fans, as according to reports they might be able to acquire a veteran 31-year-old sharpshooter.

The 31-year-old sharpshooter in question is none other than the Orlando Magic’s, Terrence Ross. NBA insider Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports delved deeper into the trade rumors surrounding Ross.

He said, ?Terrence Ross has long garnered interest from the Los Angeles Lakers, sources said. … Yet, while Orlando has rebuffed offers below a first-round pick for the veteran swingman in recent seasons… it?s difficult to foresee a playoff contender sacrificing more than a single second-round selection for Ross? services.??

This could leave the Lakers with an opportunity to have him join the roster without giving away any first-round draft picks.
