The Los Angeles Lakers are in the perfect spot to rebuild, but since it's L.A. and Kobe Bryant's time in the league is dwindling, there is some pressure to win now.
The good news for the Lakers is that they are in a position with the second pick in the draft to get a guy who can help right away and the decision is pretty much made up for them: take the big man who Minnesota passes on.
The consensus among most experts is that the top four players in the draft are Karl Anthony-Towns, Jahlil Okafor, D'Angelo Russell and Emmanuel Mudiay.
