Lakers Center Crunch Looms | Golden State Warriors News
Description
The Lakers are stuck in a roster crunch with 16 guaranteed contracts—over the league limit—after signing Matisse Thybulle. With only Kevon Looney and Walker Kessler as true centers, and Looney’s role shrinking due to diminished production and limited minutes in recent seasons, the front office must act fast. They need to trade for another center or clear space to pursue one in free agency, but their draft assets are tied up in the Kessler deal. Looney, despite his championship pedigree and being the only 30-year-old on the roster, may be forced into a demanding backup role he’s not suited for anymore—unless they make a move soon.
