Jovan Buha of The Athletic recently evaluated the Los Angeles Lakers’ center rotation for the remainder of the season.

He noted that Alex Len’s debut performance last Wednesday was “rough,” suggesting that the veteran’s level of play might not meet initial expectations.

Buha believes that, as a result, the Lakers may have to lean more heavily on small-ball lineups than they would prefer, particularly in the postseason.

In such situations, players like Jarred Vanderbilt and Dorian Finney-Smith could see minutes at the center position to fill the gap.
