Lakers want LeBron and Reaves back, but roster overhaul looms

Pelinka and Redick want to retain LeBron James and Austin Reaves, but insiders say running it back with a largely unchanged roster isn’t likely. LeBron remains undecided about retirement and could explore options if the Lakers shift direction; even if he stays, the team will likely reshuffle to add depth, especially at center, with potential targets like Jaxson Hayes or Deandre Ayton to shore up the supporting cast.
