The most glaring needs on the Lakers roster are both consistent 3-point shooting and size on the wing, two of the skillsets every team in the league is constantly searching for. While most teams are looking to add to their wing depth, the Lakers are simply looking for any semblance of wings to be the first on their roster.
That might explain the Lakers reported interest in both Evan Fournier and Cam Reddish. The pair have been made available in recent weeks for trade and, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Lakers have made contact with the Knicks about both of them.
