Christian Koloko is a 7-foot center who is currently recovering from offseason knee surgery, causing him to miss the start of the NBA season. After dealing with health issues, including a blood clot condition that prevented him from playing or practicing, he is awaiting clearance from the NBA’s fitness panel. The Lakers are interested in signing him to add frontcourt depth, particularly as Anthony Davis has expressed a desire to play fewer minutes at center. While Koloko may not be a premier center, his ability to provide rebounding, rim protection, and lob threats makes him a potential asset for the team. Given his health history, the Lakers might consider signing him to a training camp deal before potentially bringing him on as an affiliate player with their G League team, the South Bay Lakers.
