Not the Lakers, the NBA team that is favorite to land Alex Caruso from the Bulls

The Los Angeles Lakers have been in the news recently after reports by NBA insider Jovan Buha from The Athletic has the team showing real interest in targeting the Chicago Bulls players DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine, and Alex Caruso.

While Zach LaVine has been the name more mentioned and that seems LA to have the most interest in acquiring, the fans want the return of Alex Caruso who helped LeBron James and Anthony Davis to win it all in the 2020 NBA championship bubble.

While one would think the Lakers are the favorite to land Caruso if he becomes available from the Chicago Bulls, betting sites have another team as the actual favorite to get a deal done for the former LA guard.

The betting site Bovada Official has the Philadelphia 76ers as the actual favorites to land Alex Caruso with odds of +250 while the Lakers are the second with +300 followed by the Milwaukee Bucks with +450.

The trade will not be coming soon

Despite the strong rumors and recent reports that have the Lakers showing real interest in making a trade, this won't happen soon, as the team needs at least to wait until December 15th to have assets available to try such a move.
