Los Angeles head coach JJ Redick played without a traditional big man in the second half of Game 4 and all of Game 5.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NFL Star Takes on the Arctic: Jimmy Graham\u2019s Epic Row for the RecordNFL Star Takes on the Arctic: Jimmy Graham\u2019s Epic Row for the Record<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During his end-of-the-season press conference with local reporters, Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka said he will attempt to acquire a center this offseason.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, Kevin Pelton of ESPN proposed the following trade idea between the Lakers, Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks and Chicago Bulls:<\/p>\n<p>Dallas Mavericks get: Guard Donovan Mitchell, 2031 first-round pick (via Lakers), 2028 first-round swap (via Lakers), 2030 first-round swap (via Lakers)<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland Cavaliers get: 2025 No. 1 pick, guards Jevon Carter and Gabe Vincent, forwards Maxi Kleber and P.J.

He averaged 13.5 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks while shooting 70.6% from the field and 71.8% from the free-throw line.<\/p>\n<p>A one-time All-Star, Allen will make $20 million next season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Lakers get their long-desired rim-running center in Allen, undoubtedly the best big man available to them in terms of current value,&#8221; Pelton wrote.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Getting Allen costs them not only the pick, swap and Knecht, but also a second swap. If the Lakers can build around Allen and Doncic like they hope, that swap shouldn&#8217;t convey anyway.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Allen, 27, has played for the Brooklyn Nets and Cavaliers.
