Choose one out of five! The Lakers' center reinforcement plan was released, and Reaves couldn't keep it

The most important thing for the Lakers this offseason is to strengthen their interior line. A midseason-shaking trade that turned the Lakers from a top team on the interior to a weak team on the inside. The impact of Davis' departure on the Lakers' interior is indeed huge. Although they have Doncic on the outside, if they don't have a good interior in this league at present, it also means that they don't have good interior defense and rebounding, and the overall impact on the team is huge.

So this offseason, the Lakers began to learn from last season's failures and began to go all out to strengthen the interior, and they are currently targeting five interior players, namely Claxton, Capela, Lowe, Kessler and Da Luo. These players have young potential insiders as well as experienced All-Star insiders. For the Lakers, if they want to get these interior players, they may also have to pay a huge price. For example, if they want to get a player of Kessler's type, they'll have to put a chip like Reaves on the line.

For the Lakers, Kessler is the best fit of the five. First of all, some of the other players are very old, and some players have a very big risk of injury and are extremely prone to injury. And some players have very single skills, only Kessler is a very potential interior with a lot of room for improvement, and is an interior line that needs to be carved urgently. If the Lakers can get Kessler, he can partner with Doncic, maybe his progress is fast, just like the Mavericks' Lively, and his improvement speed after partnering with Doncic is visible to the naked eye.

So if the Lakers want to complete a trade with the Jazz and possibly get Kessler, they will have to pay Reaves as a bargaining chip. The decision to trade Reaves was actually a good decision for the Lakers, as Reaves isn't that important to the Lakers at the moment. With Doncic, Reaves' importance has obviously decreased, after all, the Lakers currently have three players who need to carry the ball, and if there is one less ball point, it will not have much impact on the Lakers. After all, Reaves' catch-and-shoot isn't that great. So if the Lakers can get a potential insider, trading Reaves is perfectly acceptable for many Lakers fans, I wonder what the fans think?
