Los Angeles Lakers establish their top signing priority for this summer
The Los Angeles franchise is already working from management to incorporate the center they perceive as ideal for next season's project.
Strong emotions are on the horizon this summer in the management of Los Angeles Lakers. It is evident that Rob Pelinka and company have a huge responsibility on their hands, needing to choose wisely which players they seek to make a qualitative leap in a team where Lebron James and Luka Doncic are. Competing for a championship must be the guiding thread of their actions.
Since the day after their elimination in the playoffs, Los Angeles Lakers have been involved in numerous NBA rumors about possible signings. The top priority is to incorporate a high-level center who complements Doncic and LeBron perfectly, contributes in all facets of the game, and possesses defensive skills. Several names have been circulating in the orbit of the purple and gold recently, but everything indicates that they have already made a firm decision: Walker Kessler.
The Utah Jazz player would fit perfectly into the idiosyncrasy of a team where he would have a fundamental role. It is expected that Dalton Knecht and a first-round pick will be the trade package that Los Angeles Lakers will have to offer, although there is a possibility that they may be forced to include some other asset. Walker Kessler has enormous rebounding skills, can play above the rim, and possesses notable tactical intelligence, all fundamental aspects for his success with the Lakers.
