Lakers foolishly pass on perfect free-agent target that may join Celtics

After a myriad of strong moves that were part of a great showing in NBA free agency, the Los Angeles Lakers have 13 players on the roster with two spots to fill before the 2023-24 season.

Fans already know that the Lakers are going to add another big to the roster at some point. Rob Pelinka admitted that the team is still active in the free-agent center market. Add in the fact that Jaxson Hayes may start — instead of coming off the bench — alongside Anthony Davis and it is clear that the team needs another center.
