Just filed to ESPN.com: Raptors close to buyout of sharpshooter Peja Stojakovic. Buyout scheduled to be completed later today. Link to come
Sources close to situation say Peja hoping to go West once he clears waivers. Mavs, Lakers and Hornets are top three teams on his list.
would the lakers have any interest or need for him?
this year he's played in 8 games, 14 mpg, 48% from 3 (15 for 31).
i think the mavs who just had butler go down and the hornets where he's played for yes before getting traded to the raptors are on top of his list ahead of the lakers.
i'd probably pass on him at this point. barnes' injury is the only reason to considering him, but i don't think its enough of a reason. i still prefer walton gets any potential minutes peja would theoretically be stealing from him.
