Surprise, the center the Lakers want back is not Wenyen Gabriel

The Los Angeles Lakers are looking for one more signing in the free agency market and want to use it for another size center. Many fans speculated and thought it would be a new player, but everything indicated it would be a returning player.

This offseason, the team's three centers, Tristan Thompson, Wenyen Gabriel, and Mo Bamba, became free agents. And with one more spot available for a center, the surprise indicates that it will be the vet Tristan Thompson.

This is a surprise as many believed that Mo Bamba would be the first option for the Lakers to bring back, but Thompson could sign for the vet minimum; still, something needs to be made.

Fans prefer the Lakers to bring back Dwight Howard instead of returning Thompson for another season. Still, the number one option the Lakers Nation is willing to see is Mo Bamba.

Lonnie Walker has no room in the current Lakers roster

Everything is pointing out for the Laker SG Lonnie Walker's exit, as the team has enough guards, and with a center using the last spot on the roster, Walker could part ways with the team at any minute from now.
