Although the Los Angeles Lakers' roster looks largely set, their pursuit of 6-foot-7 forward Jonathan ******* inga hasn't ended.
They have depth at the wing and forward spots after adding Ziaire Williams and Matisse Thybulle in recent days, but they lack a legitimate two-way starting forward. ******* inga could fill that void -- if he changes his ways and embraces such a well-rounded role.
ESPN reporter Anthony Slater went on "NBA Today" on Thursday and outlined where the Lakers' pursuit of ******* inga stands.
"I can tell you that they keep calling Jonathan ******* inga. And again, obviously they have not made a lucrative enough offer for ******* inga to jump. But part of their pitch has been, 'Hey, you can come start here potentially.'
"And that says two things to me. Number one, it says the Lakers still don't want to be done making moves, and they believe they're a little weak on the wing position. Which, I think [Matisse] Thybulle will help. I think Ziaire Williams will help, but they could use some more juice on the wing, and maybe they get ******* inga done. Maybe they don't. I think the LeBron domino affects ******* inga and what he may or may not be able to get. But, again, all I can tell you is Rob Pelinka keeps calling about Jonathan ******* inga"
