Trae Young to Lakers less likely because of agency change?

Young has been linked to the Lakers for a while, though some around the league believe his switch of representation from Klutch Sports to CAA earlier this month has decreased the odds he lands in Los Angeles if he becomes available.Source: New York Times

NBA Central: Trade targets for the Lakers this summer: Trae Young, Dejounte Murray, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland (Via @jovanbuha ) pic.twitter.com/6vT7YDoXej -via Twitter @TheNBACentral / May 30, 2024
Following the combine and pro day events for several agencies, there remains a belief around the league that Atlanta will break up the backcourt pairing of Trae Young and Dejounte Murray. Several executives who spoke with HoopsHype say they value Murray over Young due to his contract length and average annual salary. -via HoopsHype / May 28, 2024
If the Pelicans reengaged the Hawks, they could look to pry away Murray or Young. Even though Young is the more talented player, the Pelicans seem to hold more interest in Murray, league sources said. The 6-5 Murray is not as much of a defensive liability as the 6-1 Young can be. He is also on a cheaper contract; Murray will make $25.5 million next season, while Young is owed $43 million. -via New Orleans Times-Picayune / May 26, 2024
