Lakers reportedly have interest in signing Khris Middleton in free agency

As soon as Magic Johnson, Rob Pelinka and the rest of the Los Angeles Lakers convinced LeBron James to take his talents to Venice Beach, the search for his second star began. The typical names obviously come to mind (hi there, Kevin Durant!), but the Lakers will have quite the selection to choose from.

And while he might not come with all the fanfare others might, Khris Middleton would fit absolutely perfectly next to James and whatever roster the Lakers might enter next season with. According to Sean Deveney of Sporting News, the Lakers (and other teams) seem to agree with that assessment.
