The LA Lakers are still looking for a big center, the options are running out in free agency, and Pelinka could have the final decision for Mo Bamba

Thirteen out of fourteen spots in the Lakers roster are taken, thanks to the job done by GM Rob Pelinka and the front office in this free agency market; the job still needs to be finished.

Ham and Pelinka are looking for another big center; at the moment, the team has Anthony Davis, whose natural fit is being a PF, and Jaxson Hayes. Also, the undrafted rookie Colin Castleton, but the team is looking for another center to help AD return to his natural role as a Forward.

Mo Bamba was the center for the team, and with the free agency not having many good centers available, his return is closer than expected. Still, a couple of options exist before Pelinka turns to Mo Bamba.

The final decision of the Laker's GM is to try to land Chris Wood and, in case the center doesn't sign with LA, to bring back Bamba. Still, the Lakers have surprises before, and everything could happen.

What must Colin Castleton do in the Summer League to earn a spot?

Today, the Lakers fans and coaching staff want to see what Colin Castleton does. It will depend on how Castleton's passing and gran-and-go skills translate.
