Espn Mock 3 Young is a steal if he slips this far in the draft. He could go as high as No. 8 to Charlotte or No. 13 to New Orleans. He doesn't fit a need, but it's tough to see the Lakers passing on the local Laker fanatic if he lasts this long. And his shooting ability and athleticism make him a valuable asset. Don't be surprised if this pick gets moved as part of a trade to bring in another star for Kobe. If the Pacers were to send Jermaine O'Neal to L.A., for example, you can bet they'd want to grab a shooter like Young.

He is a good shooter and passer and is also plays at USC it would be great to have both Nick Young and Farmar coming off the bench another USC vs UCLA Rivalary
young is like caron butler carbon copy with more hops ... we'd just end up trading him for a garbage center
Nick Young would be a very attractive addition for the Lakers. I actually hope the Wizards draft him however if we decide to go another decision it would be a great match for Los Angeles. A potential third option and another aggresive scorer with a 7 foot wing-span would be great for the Lakers to add. If Nick Young falls and they don't recieve any pressing offers to get a superstar then Young should be a great fit in Los Angeles.
