LA Lakers president of basketball operations and GM Rob Pelinka did not hesitate to tell the media the team’s offseason plans in early May.

The biggest concern for the Los Angeles Lakers was a competent big man who could play alongside All-Star guard Luka Doncic. Last season, they failed to partner Doncic with a decent big man.

The LA Lakers are aggressively pursuing a starting-caliber center to strengthen their roster and provide a competitive edge alongside Luka Doncic and LeBron James.

After finding themselves with a severe deficiency at center, the Lakers are developing an internal strategy to fix their frontcourt.

The Los Angeles Lakers made a franchise-altering move ahead of the trade deadline as they acquired Luka Dončić. While the move has set them up for the post-LeBron James era, they will need to rebuild the roster around their new stars strengths if they hope to get at least one more title before the four-time MVP retires.
