Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak says he is keeping his options open regarding the team's No. 2 overall pick in the NBA draft next month.

EL SEGUNDO – Karl-Anthony Towns or Jahlil Okafor? The Lakers' decision on what to do with the No. 2 pick in June’s draft might not be so clear-cut, with General Manager Mitch Kupchak even leaving the door open Tuesday that they could trade the pick.

“It would have to be a heck of an opportunity for us to consider doing something like that,” Kupchak cautioned after the Lakers held pre-draft workouts for six players who could be selected in the second round.
