People around the league expect the Lakers to sign forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili and guard Quentin Grimes, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line, who reports (via Twitter) that Los Angeles continues to pursue Jazz center Walker Kessler, its “top summer target.”
Mamukelashvili and Grimes are unrestricted free agents and thus able to sign with any team. Kessler is restricted, however, and the Lakers would have to either work out a sign-and-trade with Utah or perhaps sign him to an offer sheet that the Jazz are unwilling to match in order to acquire him.
