NBA 18/19: 3 Players the Lakers should target this month

#2 Nikola Vucevic

The Orlando Magic may look to trade away their experienced center

The Los Angeles Lakers have added depth to the center position this season, with the additions of JaVale McGee and Tyson Chandler. While McGee has been excellent this season, his production of 11.6 points and 6.7 rebounds is dwarfed when compared to the league's best centers such as Anthony Davis, Steven Adams, and Joel Embiid.

The Lakers have the trade assets and cap space to make a big upgrade on McGee, and the Orlando Magic's Nikola Vucevic, could be available for trade this month. The 28-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 20.6 points and 11.5 rebounds per game, and the Magic know that the center will eventually have to make way for their recent draft pick, Mohamed Bamba. Vucevic would give the Lakers a dominant scoring force in the paint, and the impressive McGee could still play big minutes from the bench.
