Lakers Eye Jazz's Walker Kessler for Potential Trade

As the NBA season begins, the Los Angeles Lakers are considering a trade to strengthen their frontcourt with Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler.

The Lakers have started the season strong but are exploring options to improve their roster depth, particularly at the center position.
Walker Kessler, a promising young center from the Utah Jazz, has attracted interest due to his defensive skills and potential to bolster the Lakers' lineup.
Kessler, currently under a rookie contract, averaged 8.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks last season, making him a valuable asset for any team seeking defensive prowess.
The Lakers face challenges in securing Kessler, as it may require trading significant draft assets, including future first-round picks.
While the Lakers are monitoring the trade market, they remain cautious and are not rushing into any immediate deals.
