On June 10, Lakers reporter Jovan Buha interacted with fans on a podcast show. He said that the Lakers traded Kessler because the Jazz asked for a low price. Buha believes that the Lakers only have the mini middle class and basic salary, and Hawks center Capela is the first choice. As for the basic salary, you can consider Paul at the 40-year-old. The Lakers currently have three core players, James, Doncic, and Reeves, which occupy a considerable salary space, so it is likely that the introduction of centers will be a blue-collar role.

Buha said that the Jazz listened to opinions on Kessler's transactions and there would be many people competing, and the asking price was very high, and the Lakers expected the competition to be at a disadvantage. The Lakers currently have only players like Hachimura and Reeves, plus a first-round pick that can be traded, which obviously has no advantage in competing with Kessler. What's more, Jazz Angie's asking price for Kessler is very high, and the Lakers' bargaining chips cannot impress the Jazz management at all, so the Lakers still need to evaluate based on actual conditions.

Buha's personal advice to the Lakers is to use the mini middle class to sign the center, and target players such as Capela, Lopez, and Adams. Among them, Capela is the best choice. Capela has excellent finishing ability and rebounding ability, and is also the youngest among the three. Lopez is very capable in space, but he is too dependent on positioning. Aquaman Adams is a top substitute and has proven himself to be a very good inside player in the Rockets, especially his ability to rebound in the frontcourt is still very good.

The Lakers want to strengthen the inside, Capela is indeed the first consideration, whether it is in the team's salary space or the adaptability of core players. Doncic and James are both excellent pancake making masters. Capela is a very good pancake-eating player. During his cooperation with Harden, he was awarded the title of "Cat King", so Capela is the best choice for the Lakers.
