Los Angeles Lakers mentioned youth above. I know salary also played a role. $9.4m in savings. Lakers have half a roster to fill and after the Bagley deal only $5m or so to fill out the rest of the roster. An additional $9.4m is huge. Wall, Beal, Butler, Porzingis, Bagley with McDermott starting at utility and Shake on the bench with $5m to fill out the roster isn't feasible. Thus the trade.
