NBA Market: Los Angeles Lakers were clear that they needed to sign a center after the failed trade of Mark Willians, and they have done so very quickly. Thus, Alex Len lands in LA after convincing him despite having a deal with the Indiana Pacers. He will be, alongside Jaxon Hayes, the other pivot of a purple and gold team that has waived the injured Christian Wood to create salary cap space.
The 31-year-old Ukrainian has over a decade of NBA experience and this season was playing limited minutes for the Sacramento Kings. He has had stints with the Suns, Hawks, Raptors, and the aforementioned Kings since joining the league in 2012. His best season was 18/19, where he averaged 11 points and 5 rebounds in 20 minutes of play with the Hawks.
