An NBA insider revealed whether or not the Lakers and Suns are still discussing a trade. The Suns recently claimed former Laker Jordan Goodwin off waivers after he was waived for Marcus Smart.

Another former Lakers guard waived for Smart is Shake Milton, who has also found his new team. Milton signed a two-year deal with the EuroLeague's Partizan Belgrade in Serbia. He joined the Lakers midway through last season, and spent a majority of his time on the bench.

Finally, the Lakers are convinced Luka Doncic will sign a long-term contract with them. Reports have come out saying Doncic has already agreed to one, however, that remains to be seen.

"When you get a guy like Luka calling...checking on you, trying to see where you're at, to see if you want to come join something special that he's trying to cook up over here. For him to say that he can really use my help, that meant a lot."
