Lakers’ 5 Potential Replacements For Boogie Cousins Ft. Dwight Howard, Joakim Noah & Kenneth Faried

DeMarcus Cousins tore his ACL, which is his third major injury to the same leg in the past two years following a ruptured Achilles and a torn quad. With Cousins likely out for the 2019-20 NBA season, the Los Angeles Lakers are lacking depth at the center position & will be in the market to acquire another center through NBA free agency or a potential trade. The biggest NBA trade rumor flowing throughout the league involves the Lakers trading for Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard played for Los Angeles back in 2012, but has not been the same player he was in his prime. The Memphis Grizzlies gave the Los Angeles Lakers permission to speak with Howard & the Lakers could potentially make a trade to acquire the former 2x Defensive Player of the Year. A free agent option for the Lakers is Joakim Noah. Noah is another veteran player who could provide some defensive presence on the Lakers roster. However, Noah is 34 years old & has been battling injuries over the past few years. Should the Lakers take a chance on Noah? Another NBA free agent that could make some sense is Kenneth Faried. He has been a solid veteran for the Nuggets & Rockets during his career & could bring some much needed tenacity for the Lakers in 2019. Like this video?

The Thunder traded Russell Westbrook & Paul George, so they are obviously in a rebuild phase and aren’t afraid to trade anyone on their roster. Taj Gibson cannot be traded until December, but if the price is right, the Knicks could potentially move Gibson. Who should the Lakers sign or trade for to replace DeMarcus Cousins?
