Report: Walker Kessler considered 'close to unavailable' ahead of deadline
Briefly

The Los Angeles Lakers are preparing for the February 6 trade deadline with a clear objective to acquire a center, driven by Anthony Davis's public appeal for such a player. Despite possessing valuable assets, including two first-round picks, the Lakers face challenges, particularly with the Utah Jazz's Walker Kessler being considered almost unattainable. Reports suggest that the Jazz's vast collection of first-round picks reduces their urgency to trade, complicating the Lakers' pursuit of adding significant talent to bolster their lineup.
The Lakers are aggressively pursuing a center before the Feb. 6 trade deadline, influenced by Anthony Davis's public request.
The Utah Jazz's Walker Kessler, a key target for the Lakers, is deemed nearly unavailable due to a high asking price.
