Easily one of the most polarizing decisions made this summer was the Los Angeles Lakers parting ways with Alex Caruso in order to afford to keep Talen Horton-Tucker. That decision could prove to be a real fork in the road moment given the ambitions of this team and where both those players are in the careers. So this week in the Lakers Lounge, Harrison Faigen and I discussed what we think could be in store for the youngest, yet fourth highest paid Laker.
It’s going to be damn near impossible to separate Horton-Tucker from the aforementioned decision, as unfair as that might be.
