The Los Angeles Lakers have a lot of holes, and I'd go so far as to say that, after watching the NBA Finals, they have to be very worried about what their future looks like.
It was rather obvious that the Lakers just don't have the same caliber of talent as some other teams in the NBA, and for a team with Luka Doncic and other star players, that's just as big an issue as anyone could imagine.
The Lakers have to hope things change for them over the next few months, as they have assets and players to trade, but that doesn't mean everything will work out. Among the many moves that the Lakers need to make, finding a competent center seems to be at the top of the priority list.
According to the latest from NBA insider Brian Windhorst of ESPN, there's a strong expectation that, at the very least, the Lakers are going to do something at the center position.
“They’re going to do something at the center position. If they don’t do it in free agency, they’re going to make a trade. They’re going to have an upgrade at center. Just how big the upgrade is, we’ll wait and see. I’m sure they have plan A, B C, D, and E,” Windhorst said, H/T Heavy.
Now, I don't want to be on the side of caution that says the Lakers aren't going to improve on all fronts, but to hear they're focused on the biggest task at hand is important.
The Lakers, unfortunately, won't have many options to choose from, as the center market isn't exactly strong.
