NBA Trade Rumors: 5 teams that must make a deal
Los Angeles Lakers:
The Lakers are in the same boat as the Rockets. They are right in the thick of the playoff chase but will need to get better on the defensive side of the ball. Timofey Mozgov is not the guy to trust when it comes to a key rebound or block. His low post moves are limited at best and the team could do much better come deadline time. The Lakers will be another great fit for Noel as he won’t ask for the ball on the offensive side too much and will just provide the Lakers with a better option as a rim protector than Mozgov.
