During the Lakers vs. Hornets, while Castleton shined, Pelinka gave him bad news

The Lakers signed a two-way contract with the undrafted center Colin Castleton, and the player is looking to follow Austin Reaves' path with the purple and gold.

Castleton was the best Laker in the second win in the Summer League and is looking to be playing to get an upgrade and get a standard contract to become the team's backup center and the 14th player.

But the GM, Rob Pelinka, spoke during the game and shared an update about what the team is looking for in the free agency. With information by the NBA insider Jovan Buha:

"Rob Pelinka says the Lakers are 'actively' on the market for another big in free agency." The front office could not be considering giving Castleton a standard contract after all.

The Lakers fans wonder why the team doesn't pursue Christian Wood

The best center currently available in the free agency is Christian Wood, and the Lakers are still looking to add a big player to their roster but seem to be waiting, and the fans are getting desperate as they want Pelinka to sign Wood.
