It’s true. Los Angeles Lakers did attempt to trade NBA’s 2010-2011 ‘Sixth Man of the Year’ Lamar Odom for Derrick Williams, the No. 2 Draft Pick newly acquired by Minnesotta Timberwolves. However, both parties did not agree on a mutual decision so the trade was cancelled.

Derrick Williams is drafted to Minnesota Timberwolves after having quite a remarkable run with collegiate basketball as Wildcats’ center. He was the No. 2 pick for the NBA draft 2011 and second No. 2 overall selection for an Arizona player. (The No. 1 pick was Kyrie Irving who was drafted to Cleveland Cavaliers). Actually, he’s one of a handful of players who have ever been drafted from the said state.
