If they want to win another NBA championship, the Lakers may need to do something with Austin Reaves they haven't been willing to even consider.

During his end-of-the-season press conference, Lakers president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka said he will attempt to acquire a center this summer. Los Angeles played without a center in Game 5 of the Timberwolves series and was outrebounded 54-37, including 18-8 on the offensive glass.

Austin Reaves’ breakout season and trade value spark speculation that the Lakers could deal him this offseason.
