Lakers acquire Myles Turner in a trade

If Andre Drummond walks in free agency, and Anthony Davis refuses to the play the center position, then the Los Angeles Lakers need to find a new center this offseason.

For Los Angeles, they would prefer a player that can protect the rim and stretch the floor, allowing their spacing to remain intact on offense.

When Drummond was on the court, things could get clogged in the paint due to his inability to shoot the ball.

Amid the Myles Turner trade rumors around the NBA, the Lakers have been listed as a potential landing spot for the two-way big man. Turner would be an ideal fit next to Davis due to his ability to knock down threes and send shots back from opposing players.
