Live broadcast, May 25-an anonymous executive of a team in the West participated in an interview with Heavy website reporter Sean Deveney this week. The executive believed that the Lakers could not keep Lonnie Walker, beasley may be used as a bargaining chip.
“I don’t see how they can afford Lonnie Walker’s salary. Walker is likely to leave.” The anonymous executive said, “the Lakers may prefer to activate the team option of Beasley’s contract. He can contribute to any team, and the Lakers are expected to keep him. If the team needs it, he is also a good trading partner. If the tax is a big problem, Beasley may be the easiest to send away.”
Lonnie Walker is about to become a complete free agent, and his salary this season is 6.5 million dollars.
Beasley’s contract has a team option this summer, and his salary next season is 16.5 million dollars.
