The Los Angeles Lakers put Nick Young on the trade block but unfortunately for them, no one bit.  The Lakers shopped Young around, starting at the draft and through free agency, as they tried to reshape their roster.  Young was made available to anyone and everyone but he still remains on the roster and it looks like it’s going to stay that way.

According to Bill Oram of the Orange County Register:

Heard today Lakers have no plans to trade Nick Young. Called around seeking suitors so they could clear cap room quickly. Didn’t materialize.

Young is the quintessential NBA gunner, a volume shooter who averaged 13.4 points a game last season but shot 36.6 percent to get there. He is out there having fun, is not taking anything too seriously, and that has rubbed Kobe Bryant and Byron Scott the wrong way at times.

Young is only making $5.2 million next season (with two season at that price after it), but coming off a knee injury that cost him half the season last year teams were not going to take the risk. That could change as things move into the season, as teams see how their rosters blend.

But for now, Young is a Laker.
