If the rumour mills are to be believed then the LA Lakers are looking to make the biggest splash this offseason, as they are touted to be one of the front-runners to sign LeBron James and Paul George.

That would need them to free up significant cap space and one of the major candidates to be pushed out for it seems to be Julius Randle. Randle has been arguably the Lakers best player this season averaging 16 PPG and 8 RPG while shooting a staggering 55% from the field.

Though the Lakers might want their free agents to sit tight till the James & George situation has some clarity, it is unlikely that someone like Randle would wait around for that long.

Without a doubt, he is one of the brightest young prospects in the league and there would be a lot of teams clamouring to acquire his services if he decides to exercise free agency.
