Since his first three seasons with the Hawks, the Texas native has experienced four different franchises in five seasons. So when thinking about next year, he sees himself extending in California.

That's why staying here would definitely be the first thing to do. If that's not the case, the dominoes will fall and we'll see where it's best, that's where I'll be. But I'm 100% sure I want to be a Laker », Formulates the winger who received 4.5 million dollars this season.

It remains to be seen whether the Lakers have the same intentions as him. Holder during the first three quarters of the season, Taurean Prince was helpful, notably getting closer to 40% success behind the arc.
