The Los Angeles Lakers are much more suited to postseason success than they were a few weeks ago as early returns on the Luka Doncic-LeBron James pairing are quite exciting. One thing the organization would love to find, though, is a reliable big man to solidify the frontcourt. Since the trade deadline has come and gone and the Lakers' efforts to land someone to fill that role hit a snag, they have very limited options.
The available pool of potential additions is so underwhelming that Stephen A. Smith suggested, with a straight face on Tuesday's First Take, that Los Angeles should sign Dwight Howard. This unusual line of thinking elicited a solid bit from Brian Windhorst.
