The Lakers have little trade flexibility, but that hasn’t stopped Los Angeles from exploring various potential deals. Rob Pelinka’s front office has only Talen Horton-Tucker and Kendrick Nunn as non-minimum players with tangible trade value, and that combination won’t be nearly enough to land Grant or Turner. But the Lakers have called rival teams to assess the trade value of DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard and Kent Bazemore, sources said.

📅 On this day in 2012, the @Orlando Magic‘s Dwight Howard matched his career high with 45 points in a win over the Warriors:
✅ 45 PTS
✅ 23 REB
✅ 12-21 FG
✅ 21-39 FT
His 39 FTA set a new NBA single-game record, a mark he would equal just 14 months later (March 12, 2013). pic.twitter.com/3AxoWax80L12:01 PM
