With the arrival of the trade deadline, many teams in the NBA are working intensively on the final transaction. According to Scotto, the Lakers, Raptors and Knicks are discussing a three-way deal involving Redish, Tarren Horton Tucker, Alec Burks, Noel and Dragic.
According to Scotto, the Lakers will get: Cameron Redish, Alec Burks
Knicks get: Golan Dragic and draft picks
The Raptors got: Horton Tucker, Noel
After this trade rumor was exposed, Knicks flank Redish posted a warm-up photo of him at the Lakers' home stadium on Instagram, and Lakers guard Wayne Ellington also commented on him for the first time. Redish's move is also seen as a gesture of overtures to the Lakers.
The 22-year-old Redish came to Duke University for the 2019 first round pick No. 10. In three seasons in the league, he averaged 10.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. Not long ago, Reddish had just traded from the Hawks to the Knicks. But after joining the Knicks, Reddish did not get reused, he only played in five games, and his average of points fell to 4 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.
Apparently, Reddish himself is not willing to stay with the Knicks, and he hopes to join the Lakers to assist James. It is worth mentioning that Resh and Taren Horton Tucker, who were involved in the deal, were both brokered by Rich Paul, which also cleared the way for this potential deal.
