This mock trade would give the Lakers a two-time All-Star center

There is a hole at the center position for the Los Angeles Lakers, and regardless of how far they go in this season's playoffs, they will have to address that roster weakness this offseason.

They tried to address it shortly after acquiring Luka Doncic by agreeing to trade Dalton Knecht, Cam Reddish and draft compensation to the Charlotte Hornets for the young and promising Mark Williams. But Williams failed his physical a few days later, and just like that, the trade was rescinded.

One other big man the Lakers were rumored to be interested in prior to the trade deadline was Nikola Vuu010deviu0107 of the Chicago Bulls.
