While the Los Angeles Lakers have recently been linked to Nic Claxton of the Brooklyn Nets and the Dallas Mavericks' Daniel Gafford, it is very possible they end up acquiring a surprise player in order to plug their big hole at the center position.
If they were to acquire Gafford, one of the advantages he would give them over almost any other center option is the fact that he spent some time playing alongside Luka Doncic, and therefore, the two would know how to maximize each other on the court.
But there is another intriguing center Doncic also played with when he was with the Dallas Mavericks who could be moved this summer.
