Coach Darvin Ham was complimentary toward the two bigs, who came in Friday for workout sessions, but didn’t hint at a future for either on the roster at the moment.
“They both looked great,” Ham said. “Whether or not we’re able to do something with them is a different story. But we’re constantly trying to kick the tires on different scenarios. But the first order of business is to get our guys back healthy. But, definitely, we appreciate them for coming in and they both look great.”
In the meantime, the Lakers have been making do with Thomas Bryant as a starter, Wenyen Gabriel as a backup and lineups with LeBron James at center. Damian Jones has played almost no meaningful minutes in the last month without Davis. If the Lakers wanted to bring in another big man, they would need to manipulate their roster. The 10-day contract of Sterling Brown ends after Sunday, but the Lakers are still missing wings and guards Lonnie Walker and Austin Reaves, and Patrick Beverley is questionable for the Philadelphia game with a non-COVID illness . The need for Brown at guard might supersede the need for another big man – unless the Lakers choose to waive Jones.
