Why the Lakers' no-risk signing of Christian Wood could free up Anthony Davis' game

The Los Angeles Lakers agreed to terms with free agent big man Christian Wood on Tuesday, wrapping up their offseason moves with about a month to go before training camp.

Wood tweeted that it had "always been my dream" to play for the Lakers. It turns out his dream coincides with the desires of L.A.'s most important player: Anthony Davis.

Sources told ESPN that Davis made it clear to the organization he wanted to have more support at center so he wouldn't have to play so much 5 during the regular season.
