\n\u201cThe league believes, and I know that\u2019s a vague statement, but I\u2019m saying it that way to avoid trapping myself,\u201d said Windhorst on his podcast. \u201cThe league believes, numerous teams I\u2019ve talked to believe that Andre Drummond is heading for the Lakers if slash when he gets bought out.
\n\u201cAnd there\u2019s a growing belief that LaMarcus Aldridge, the leader for LaMarcus Aldridge is the Heat.
\n\u201cNow, let\u2019s see how everything plays out this week. The Heat could make moves that change their dynamic. Other teams could make moves that change their dynamic. I know the L.A. teams have interest in LaMarcus too and the way things go, that could end up being the case.
\n\u201cMultiple people I\u2019ve talked to in the league with multiple teams believe that\u2019s a possibility.\u201d
\nDrummond was traded by the Detroit Pistons to the Cavaliers at last year\u2019s deadline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
