Lakers News: Anthony Davis Trying To Be Someone Christian Koloko Can Lean On

With Jaxson Hayes suffering a sprained ankle and Christian Wood still recovering from offseason knee surgery, the only big man offering depth behind Anthony Davis for the Los Angeles Lakers is two-way center Christian Koloko.

The Lakers turned to Koloko in their recent victory over the Memphis Grizzlies and he was solid in 13 minutes, contributing four points, one rebound and one steal. Of course Koloko is a long-term project, especially after having to sit out more than a year due to health issues, but he has one of the best players to learn from in Davis.
