Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Los Angeles Lakers

With LeBron James out due to injury, we’ve seen Kentavious Caldwell-Pope take a bit more of a role in the Los Angeles Lakers offense. Although, I’m not sure if this team still isn’t going to to move KCP, who roughly a month ago was pretty much a forgone conclusion to be moved at the NBA Trade Deadline.

KCP is on a one-year deal, and hasn’t been the player that he can be. He’s much more talented than the 10-point per game player he’s been this year with the Lakers. If the Lakers want to shakeup their roster, moving KCP would likely be a necessity.

They don’t want to burn many of their assets, and KCP is one that will likely be used as trade bait over the next few weeks.
