The Los Angeles Lakers have acquired big man Roy Hibbert in a trade with the Indiana Pacers, reports Jared Zwerling of Bleacher Report. This is a big acquisition for the Lakers, who watched nearly every free agent sign elsewhere through the summer. That patience, however, kept LA's salary space intact, and opened up this opportunity.
Details of what the Lakers and Pacers will exchange beyond Hibbert remain unclear. The Lakers might be sending cash and future draft considerations, according to Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today Sports. Another report indicates Ater Majok might be the piece heading to Indiana.
