Jordan Clarkson has emerged as one of the most interesting names on the free agent market, due to his breakout year with the Lakers. Clarkson, who was drafted 46th in the 2014 draft, will garner a lot of interest on the free agent market.
While rumors are swirling about potential suitors, Clarkson has stayed pretty quiet about the process, deferring many questions to his agency. Clarkson has stated he wants to stay in LA, but will have other teams offering him contracts. It was revealed that the New York Knicks are showing interest in Clarkson but it is not clear if they will offer Clarkson a contract.
The Lakers can match any deal that Clarkson is offered.
While his future home is unknown, one thing that is sure is that Clarkson will get paid this summer, and whoever does sign Clarkson will receive an intriguing young talent.
