"Lakers have expressed consistent interest in acquiring Onyeka Okongwu from the Hawks, viewing him as a versatile solution to bolster their frontcourt depth."
"With their financial constraints, pursuing trades is the Lakers' optimal path this offseason, particularly after the struggles following Anthony Davis's departure."
The Lakers made a bold move by acquiring Luka Doncic from Dallas at the 2024-25 deadline, but also attempted to secure Mark Williams from Charlotte, which fell through due to a failed physical. Consequently, Los Angeles is in search of a new center, leading to renewed interest in Onyeka Okongwu from the Hawks. Okongwu, a versatile 6'8" player, fits the team's needs as they recover from losing Anthony Davis. His ability to guard various positions and play effectively near the rim makes him a prime candidate for the Lakers this offseason, amidst financial limitations.
