A three-way trade that would send Chris Paul to the Lakers was still being worked on late Friday evening and into Saturday morning.

As talks resumed after the NBA killed the agreed upon trade from Thursday, the main negotiations were between the Hornets and Lakers.

Houston would still send Kevin Martin, Luis Scola, Goran Dragic and a first round pick to the Hornets while receiving Pau Gasol in return.

New Orleans would also receive Lamar Odom from the Lakers. It is not yet known what the Lakers are prepared to give up to improve the offer to satisfy the league office.

A resolution to the situation could come on Saturday.
