The Lakers and Phoenix Suns are discussing a trade that would send former Cal State Fullerton and Ventura College standout Cedric Ceballos back to Southern California.

Laker Sedale Threatt is a top candidate to be traded because he can also be a backup point guard, one of the Suns’ needs, and is close to Ceballos in salary. Ceballos, a small forward from Dominguez High in Compton, will make $2.1 million in 1994-95, but the Lakers’ best slot under the salary cap is $1.75 million. He could agree to give back the $350,000 to help the deal, although that cannot happen before Friday because of a salary cap technicality.
