The Lakers have a lot of holes to fill on a depleted roster this summer, and the addition of a big man is a priority. A number of players have been linked with a move to L.A. and ESPN's Brian Windhorst is reporting that the Lakers are interested in Brook Lopez and DeAndre Jordan:

The Lakers, I think, are sniffing around (Lopez). I think the Lakers need perimeter players. I think they're going to have to use their money on perimeter players.

The Lakers allowed Lopez to walk as a free agent last summer, although the veteran has impressed with the Milwaukee Bucks. Meanwhile, Jordan most recently spent time with the NY Knicks, although he is best known for his decade stint with the Clippers.
