Young is averaging 13.8 points per game in his fourth season with the Lakers.
The 31-year-old shooting guard could become a free agent after this season but he also has a player option that would pay him $5.6 million next season.
This means the player known as “Swaggy P” could be had at a low low price by a team looking for some perimeter scoring help.
