Sasha Vujacic Has Meeting With Lakers Management Today

Posted by fijidaddy on July 2, 2008 | Filed Under Sasha Vujacic

Sporting News: First thing Wednesday morning, Sasha Vujacic will meet with the Lakers in Los Angeles, according to Bill Duffy, Vujacic’s agent. Vujacic is coming off his best year in the NBA, averaging a career-high 17.8 minutes per game and shooting 43.7 percent on 3-pointers, which was eighth in the league. Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak has made it clear that he’d like to hold the roster together and that keeping Vujacic and forward Ronny Turiaf are offseason priorities.

Complicating matters is that Vujacic and Turiaf are restricted free agents, which means the Lakers can match any offers they might receive. “We’re going to try to get a sense of what the parameters are to make a deal work,” Duffy said. “I think that both sides want to find a way to make something work.”

    I really hope Sasha decides to stay. I already bought my pre-season tickets for the Oct. 12 game and I’d like to see him play. It would be a real disappointment to see James Posey or Brent Barry take his place. The anticipation is killing me!
