The revamped Los Angeles Lakers' front office reportedly is attempting a skyhook that it hopes will fall through the net.
According to the Orange County Register's Mark Medina, Lakers president of basketball operations Magic Johnson and controlling owner Jeanie Buss have asked NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to meet regarding a possible role for the Hall of Famer within the organization.
While it's unclear what this potential job would entail, Abdul-Jabbar has spent time in the past working as a consultant and special assistant with the team. Last season, the Lakers brought in the NBA's all-time leading scorer and six-time champion to speak with the team's younger players.
