NBA Free Agency Rumors: Lakers, Knicks Interested In Caldwell-Pope

The Los Angeles Lakers have already retooled their roster in free agency in a way many did not think they could given their salary cap situation.
They’ve added Dennis Schroder — albeit via trade — and reportedly reached agreements with Wesley Matthews and Montrezl Harrell to replace Danny Green, Dwight Howard and most likely Rajon Rondo. Now, their final major move is figuring out a contract for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
Caldwell-Pope was one of the Lakers most important contributors during their 2020 championship run, and he would fit in perfectly in the starting lineup. His role would essentially go unchanged in L.A. from last year, but money appears to be the final hurdle in the contract negotiation.
The 3-and-D wing could have made $8.4 million with the Lakers this year, but is looking for more after opting out, according to Brad Turner of The L.A. Times:
With the Lakers using the entirety of their midlevel exception on Harrell and the bi-annual exception on Matthews, their bird rights on Caldwell-Pope would allow them to pay him somewhere between $10 and $12 million before being hard-capped.
The question remains whether or not he can get more than that on the open market. The only two teams with the salary cap space to offer Caldwell-Pope more than $12 million are the Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks, both of whom have reported interest in him.
If Caldwell-Pope does not want to go to either of these locations but wants to make more money, he could work out a sign and trade deal with L.A. and another team.
At this point, it’s more likely than not that Caldwell-Pope suits up for the Lakers next season, but it might not be a quick resolution, even with training camp beginning Dec. 1.
Caldwell-Pope could be a part of sign and trade for DeMar DeRozan
While it’s highly unlikely and not necessarily a great move for L.A., Caldwell-Pope could still technically be packaged with Kyle Kuzma in a sign-and-trade deal that nets the Lakers DeMar DeRozan.
DeRozan was a rumored target for the Lakers, but that speculation has mostly dissipated since the acquisition of Schroder. However, there is belief such a scenario could entail the Lakers acquiring Bogdan Bogdanovic from the Sacramento Kings.

I miss those jerseys
He got his ring out west. Time to collect another check. Can't be mad at that.
I still feel weird about him having a Laker and Celtic ring. Like putting both of those on at the same time might open a vortex or black hole or some shit.
Easily
Good for Melo....
No one ever does. All we know is we're just gonna be shaking your head with disgust damn near every time.
Eat a dick and follow it with 2 bottles of Ensure you ancient bastard. The 6th man of the year is getting 8th man off the bench money.
it's clear they decided that Monty was worth more to them than Dwight and younger. They also Let AB walk for nothing and probably will let Rondo walk.
Do you really think if Bron wanted these cats, they wouldn't be there?
Don't worry, Kuzma is next and you can finally clear your dusty sack out and blow your load all over your keyboard.
And the heat were being generous too. They wanted to run it back but he wanted the years and they aren't sacrificing the space for a Giannis or another big name
Impressive how you typed all that while cupping Rob Pelinkas balls you honkified bitch you. Bron shoulda left you niggas in the gutter where he found you.
Some of these players got the best agents ever...Hayward, the new Sam Bradford and Matthew Stafford combined. Bradford for high money contract and always being hurt and Stafford for high contracts and never getting out of the playoffs with a ring. And Mike let all that happen?
Dawg better have a helluva injury clause in the contact because he is going to need it sooner rather than later.
That's a Mitch move
I don’t care if he’s healthy for four full season las including playoffs and plays every minute of every game! That muthafucka ain’t worth 30 million a year!
At the direction of Mike.. Mike only surrounds himself with yes man and water carriers. Mitch is a fellow tarheel and blind MJ devotee who does what hes told and will keep all MJs secrets safe.
Vince said this was going to happen
at that amount, I don't blame him
Dude had never made more than $7 mil a year, and after the performance last year and the leagues current financial condition(supposedly), HE gets $30 mil.
Naw fam, MJ wasn't around when Mitch gave Deng 72 mil.
Let's see if he plays 20 games this year.
and then the Bulls are going to throw money at another bullshit player
For the life of me I Really don’t understand signing Gordon
I don't like the chemistry of their line up
Graham, Lamelo, Gordon, Washington, (Zeller/Carey)
Bridges, Rozier, Monk
It looks like a roster of people who don't know what they're doing.
I hear ya.. But Mitch aint signing them checks. All this shit goes thru MJ. And this signing is typical of his tenure over the last 15 + years. He threw 70million at Hayward last time he was in free agency.
MJ is an idiot. Its really that simple.For the life of me I Really don’t understand signing Gordon
the temptation of Magic City was too strong....
he needed to see why Lou Williams would risk life and limb for them wangs......lol
People say the Lakers got better, but if they lose Pope Im not sure that they did.
And they still need a big who can check Jokic. AD cant spend all his energy on d.
