    The Los Angeles Lakers have a massive offseason ahead. After a disappointing end to the 2024-25 season, they now have to build a roster around Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves and LeBron James that can contend for a championship. And it won’t be easy, as building around those three with limited financial flexibility and no first round draft picks requires hitting on nearly every move.

    As the Oklahoma City Thunder have gone on their run to the NBA Finals, their superstar and MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has received a couple of comparisons to Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant.

    The Los Angeles Lakers have been on the search for a quality starting center for a couple years now and have had their eyes on several targets in that span. One of the most recent names in the Lakers center search was Utah Jazz big man Walker Kessler. A strong rebounder, rim protector and efficient finisher at the rim, Kessler seemed like an ideal fit of multiple iterations of the Lakers roster. However, the asking price to pry him away from the Jazz was always too steep.

    Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves has rapidly ascended from undrafted free agent to bonafide third option and one of the best in the league in that regard in just four seasons. But after a rough showing in L.A.’s first round loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, questions arose about Reaves’ place in the Lakers’ future next to Luka Doncic.

1. Cancel culture isn’t real, you just want to be able to speak and act without consequence 2. The premise that the only way to develop young players is to scream at them tells me you don’t know how to coach 3. The MVP went to high school in Tennessee and college in Kentucky
