The Lakers acquired Dennis Schroeder in a trade to be their point guard, but his expiring contract leaves the team’s options open after the two sides failed to agree to a contract extension. Chris Paul is another big-name point guard that might be on the Lakers’ radar. Acquiring Paul or Westbrook in a trade, though, is likely to cost the Lakers Talen Horton-Tucker, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Kyle Kuzma. AdvertisementNeither Paul nor Westbrook is among the favorites to land with the Lakers. Westbrook (4/1) and Paul (5/1) are next, followed byAvery Bradley (6/1) and Spencer Dinwiddie (8/1).
