Mekel, Buycks, Roscoe Smith? The Lakers are a NBA DL team this year

Finally they are working out the right guy.

Kobe wants him some chicken and waffles.

What position does he play?

The Lakers DESPERATELY need a rim-protector big man and a backup PG.

Every day we're hearing about new guys the Lakers are working out. I guess it's better than the "crazy sh#t Dion Waiters said" stories, but not quite as entertaining.

They went from LeBron, to Melo, to Roscoe Smith?? WTF LA?

Roscoe is a small forward and gets a lot of rebounds. He might not satisfy the needs you state but he is a very good player nevertheless and the Lakers could use him.
