Apparently, the Lakers had an offer that would have allowed them to move on from Russell Westbrook.

It has never been a secret that the lakers have tried and still want to rid themselves of Russell Westbrook.

During a Twitter thread on Tuesday, Utah Jazz insider Tony Jones of The Athletic said that the Jazz were willing to give Mike Conley, Rudy Gay and Bojan Bogdanovic along with a 2023 first-rounder in exchange for Westbrook and two Lakers first-round picks.

The Lakers didn’t pull the trigger on the deal since they didn’t want to part ways with both of their 2027 and 2029 picks. The teammay be very bad around that time, so those picks are very valuable.
