The Los Angeles Lakers have urgently needed a reliable center since last season. After falling short of reaching the conference finals for a second consecutive year, the team is now exploring all possible options to strengthen its frontcourt.

The Lakers, though, are not interested in using Reaves as a trade unless they get a top-tier big, according to the LA Times. The Brooklyn Nets' Nic Claxton and the Dallas Mavericks' Daniel Gafford are on the Lakers' radar.

Fresh off a loss in the second round of the NBA playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers are weighing all their options for the upcoming offseason, including on the trade market. While the Lakers would prefer not to break up their star-studded trio, they might consider something major if there's an opportunity to add a well-established center.
