Lakers reportedly lukewarm on DeMar DeRozan
While the links between DeMar DeRozan and the Los Angeles Lakers won’t go away, it sounds like the team itself isn’t exactly beating down his door to talk to him.
According to Kevin Ding of Bleacher Report on Bleacher Report radio, the Lakers “aren’t that high” on the Raptors swingman.
From @KevinDing with us @br_radio on #Lakers: “There’s a lot of presumption about Derozan and I’m told the Lakers aren’t that high on him"

There’s been a pile of conflicting information on DeRozan, who is soon to be a free agent. We’ve heard that the Lakers would give him the max, we’ve heard that he’s already mentally on his way to Los Angeles, and then we hear this. Combined with the fact that DeRozan has repeatedly committed himself to Toronto, the more likely scenario seems to be that he’ll stay where he is.
