The Los Angeles Lakers look like a team in need of a blockbuster shake-up trade (at least defensively). It doesn't sound like it'll happen before the Feb. 5 deadline.
NBA insider Jake Fischer appeared on a live stream on Jan. 6 and reported that the Lakers aren't expected to make a splashy move but might target minimum-contract guys if anything.
Fischer did mention that the Lakers don't see Deandre Ayton as their long-term center, but he said that general manager Rob Pelinka will wait until the offseason to make a serious upgrade.
