The Los Angeles Lakers are nearing agreement on a trade with the Indiana Pacers that will bring them former All-Star center Roy Hibbert by week's end, according to league sources. Sources told ESPN.com that the teams still are discussing the final framework of the deal but have committed to a swap that will see Hibbert absorbed into the Lakers' salary cap space after they missed out on all of their primary free agent targets. Thursday is the first day that the deal can be consummated, after a leaguewide moratorium on roster business is lifted, and one source told ESPN.com on Saturday: "It'll get done after July 9," referring to the end of the moratorium period. The Lakers will absorb Hibbert's $15.5 million salary for next season into their salary-cap space, sources said. The Lakers were snubbed in free agency by high-profile targets such as LaMarcus Aldridge and DeAndre Jordan, as well as second-tier big men such as Greg Monroe and Robin Lopez. - See more at:http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/1...kers-indiana-pacers-talking-roy-hibbert-trade
