Young will opt-out of his current deal, declining his $1.2 million player option for 2014-15, InsideSoCal.com reports.

Analysis:

Young reiterated that his priority would be to remain with the Lakers, even going as far as to say he would give them a home town discount. Swaggy P was one of the surprises of the second half of the season, averaging 20.8 points and 3.4 three-pointers after the All-Star break in just 27 minutes, but his production will surely take a hit with Kobe Bryant (knee) returning.
