Thompson Headed For LA Draft Trade Talk
The Los Angeles Lakers, seven games behind Phoenix after Thompson injury, faced trade rumors via Richard Levin of the Los Angeles Herald Examiner about Nuggets offering Thompson for Norm Nixon and the 1982 first-round pick. Lakers owner Jerry Buss denied formal offers through him while acknowledging interest in the 6-foot-4 guard with a 25.4 scoring mark. Denver faltered this season even with Thompson and, outside basketball, Jack Nicklaus enjoys golf, fishing, hunting, tennis, and skiing.
