Los Angeles Lakers are already looking for solutions after the unfortunate injury of the All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins, one of his great signings for the next season after the arrival of Anthony Davis, who along with LeBron James will try to play some Playoffs that last season They escaped them.

Cousins ​​has suffered a ligament injury that, along with the Achilles injury suffered a few months ago, will force him to do a major rehabilitation for a 2.11 and 29 year old player. Instead, the Lakers are trying to sign a pivot in the market, and for this they have begun to contact Dwight Howard . Currently, 'Superman', who will turn 34 in December, has a contract with the Memphis Grizzlies, but could reach an agreement with the franchise to cut his contract and sign with the Lakers, where he was already, without much success, during the season 2012-2013.

That course, along with Nash, Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol, the Lakers seemed clear favorites to the title, but the experiment was diluted with the passing of the weeks. Now, according to The Athletic, it seems that Howard could return to the Staples Center to try to conquer a ring that still resists a player who became the best center in the NBA.

The former Magic player has had a season starring physical problems. He played nine games with the Washington Wizards before he was injured, and the previous year, in Charlotte, he went to 16 points and nine rebounds .

The Lakers have also shown interest in Joakim Noah, in search of that mix between young and old that combines in the ideal mix to conquer the championship. At the moment, they have Rajon Rondo, LeBron, Davis, Kyle Kuzma, Danny Green, Avery Bradley, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Jared Dudley, JaVale McGee, Alex Caruso, Quinn Cook, Troy Daniels and Kostas Antetokounmpo.
