The lakers will likely draft Ingram which will fill the need at SF. But there is still a major hole at Center. Honestly I don't think the lakers will be able to sign a Star Center in Free Agency like Whiteside, Horford, etc. Plus I think most people would be overpaying for Ezeli. I think the lakers should sign role players that can contribute big off the bench, also some players that can be used as trade bait to trade for a young center. If the lakers don't sign a Star Center, they should trade for a decent young one. For example, Joel Embiid. Yea he's been injured the past couple years but he's expected to play this years. He is a old school center who can post up and score in the paint with his natural and great footwork. He is also 7'0 and can protect the paint. If healthy, he can develop with Russell, Clarkson, Ingram, Randle, and Nance to be one of the best young cores in the league plus get back into the playoffs. Also when healthy, I believe Embiid can be a 20pt/ 10reb/ 2blk a game guy. Embiid has a lot of a potential especially with his newly developed jump shot which can help space the floor. If the lakers trade for him, it could be someone they sign in free agency, maybe rondo. Trading rondo for Embiid and maybe a 2nd round pick could help the sixers in balancing their roster and giving them a natural Point Guard.
