According to LA Sports Hub’s Brian Sampson, the Lakers could reunite their recently added big man, Deandre Ayton, with a 32-year-old former Rookie of the Year to round out their roster.

Ayton's addition makes the Lakers better on paper. But it will be what happens when no one is watching that demonstrates his biggest impact.

Despite the Los Angeles Lakers' hope that Deandre Ayton can solve their issues at center next season, at least one person who used to work for one of his former clubs is pessimistic about the 26-year-old making a positive impact.
