The full story reads as follows:
The Los Angeles Lakers are considering an offer from the Orlando Magic that would send Dwight Howard to L.A. in exchange for Andrew Bynum, a source close to the situation tells PepperOnSports.com.
I know, I know. You’ve heard it all before. Here’s the fun part:
The source says the Lakers have informed one player that he might be part of the package deal and that he could be traded at any moment.
Several more prominent members of the media are vouching for Pepper on Twitter, but even she says that while her source is “legit,” the situation could go either way.
