Paul George has been constantly linked to the Lakers over the course of recent months, and rumblings have only increased with the NBA Draft swiftly approaching.
George has reportedly made his intentions to leave the Pacers after next season clear, with his preferred destination being Los Angeles. And according to a report from ESPN's Ramona Shelbourne and Marc Stein, the Lakers and Pacers are engaged in trade talks ahead of draft night.
There could be one slight hang-up, however, with the Lakers reportedly unwilling to part with one of their greatest assets -- the No. 2 overall pick.
