The Los Angeles Lakers have reportedly signed a former Memphis Grizzlies 7-foot center to address a glaring weakness on their roster, according to a report published Thursday. The move comes as the team looks to bolster its frontcourt depth ahead of the upcoming season.

Details regarding the player's identity, contract terms, and the specific weakness being addressed were not immediately disclosed in the initial report. Walker Kessler, a current NBA center, was mentioned in the report as unable to fill this particular need for the Lakers.

The signing represents Los Angeles' latest effort to reshape its roster following the offseason. Further details are expected to emerge as the transaction becomes official.
