Lakers Eye Centers, LaVine in Trade Plans

The Los Angeles Lakers are actively seeking to bolster their roster by acquiring a quality center before the trade deadline, with names like Nikola Vučević and Nic Claxton being considered as potential additions. The Lakers have also been linked to Zach LaVine, suggesting they may pursue a trade to form a formidable trio with LeBron James and Anthony Davis, although LaVine's hefty contract remains a concern. Concurrently, the Chicago Bulls are set to face the New York Knicks, hoping to break their two-game losing streak against them with the help of Zach LaVine, who is probable to play despite a right adductor strain. Meanwhile, the New York Knicks are exploring trades to enhance their depth, with a potential deal involving Robert Williams III and Toumani Camara from the Portland Trail Blazers.
