The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly making calls in the hopes of striking a deal before the NBA trade deadline. According to Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders, the Lakers are shopping Roy Hibbert and Nick Young.

Kyler revealed that the Lakers are gauging the trade values of their veterans over the past several weeks. The Lakers have reportedly informed teams that Young and Hibbert are both available until the deadline.

However, the Lakers are getting cold responses from rival teams, especially in trade talks involving Young. The nine-year veteran is not making an impact in Los Angeles this season, as he is playing behind their young guns and Kobe Bryant, who is playing in his final season in the league.

Young averaged just 7.7 points and 1.6 rebounds in 19.0 minutes in his first 35 games this season. He is also scheduled to earn $5.4 million with an $11.11 million dead cap hit next year, and has a $5.6 million player option for the 2017-18 season. Teams are unlikely to accept a salary-dumping deal involving Young, Yardbarker noted.

Unlike Young, Hibbert is playing in the final year of his contract this season. It remains to be seen, though, whether or not teams are willing to gamble on him after averaging just 6.6 points and 5.7 rebounds in his first 44 games in a Lakers uniform this season. The Lakers acquired the 29-year-old center in a trade with the Indiana Pacers last summer.

Kyler said that if the Lakers want to make a deal before the trade deadline next month, Brandon Bass is their best option. Bass, who is averaging 6.4 points and 4.1 rebounds, is expected to be dealt, most likely to a title contender, before Feb. 18. The 30-year-old is playing in the first year of his two-year, $6 million contract with the Lakers.

Earlier this month, Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak confirmed that they could make deals before the trade deadline, but he is not expecting a blockbuster move. He also admitted that they are receiving offers for their young players like D'Angelo Russell and Julius Randle but reiterated that they will likely keep all their top prospects.

"There was a flurry of phone calls a couple of weeks ago, most of which I initiated," Kupchak told Silver Screen and Roll. "We have to be careful with what we do. Most of the teams that would have interest in our players would have interest in our young players and we covet our young players pretty highly right now."
