Lakers’ LeBron James Expresses Opinion On The Looming Addition Of Tyson Chandler

Tyson Chandler was finally bought out by the Phoenix Suns, and many reported on the possibility that he will sign a contract with the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James shared his opinion on the possible addition of Tyson Chandler to the squad. His teammates did not make any comments on the news because the deal is still not an official thing. However, the king decided to talk for himself.

“We love the fact that we’re going to get another veteran. A guy who plays hard, who is very smart and another champion. To add another champion to this group and it adds depth which we’ve struggled at times,” LeBron said.

This is actually great news for the Los Angeles Lakers as they need depth on the interior. JaVale McGee is the only big player getting consistent minutes at center. Lakers head coach Luke Walton did a few experiments with Jonathan Williams, Ivica Zabac and other young prospects to spell the big McGee some minutes at center. But, McGee is not ready to give them playing minutes.

Zubac had a nice contribution in the Lakers’ victory against the Portland Trail Blazers. He had nine points and eight rebounds in 19 minutes off the bench.

LeBron had words of praise of Zubac’s readiness after the game. he said that the Croatian was great on the boards and finishing at the rim while McGee was out.

However, Zubac may be out after the addition of Chandler. Well, the Lakers are all about the winning at the moment, and they will not hesitate to do whatever it takes to win more games this season and become contenders. They lost several games so far, and the front office was sort of worried about the development of the game. But, everything goes in the right direction now.
