NBA Trade Rumours: Lakers, Clippers and Rockets eyeing Andre Iguodala

According to a leading media publication, the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, and Houston Rockets are all interested in the former GSW star. While the team is looking for Iguodala to be bought out, Grizzlies want one of those teams to trade for him. Iguodala is due to earn a reported sum of $17.2 million this season and since the Lakers don’t have any first-round picks to send out until 2026 and also don’t have the salaries to match for an Iguodala trade, it looks like the veteran is still far away from donning the purple and gold jersey.
