The Lakers will host workouts with veteran big men Dwight Howard, Joakim Noah and Marreese Speights this week as they explore options to fill the void left by the knee injury to DeMarcus Cousins.
during an organized pickup game in Las Vegas last week and he likely will miss most of the season.
Among the three possible replacements, Noah, 34, saw the most NBA action last season. He had a productive season with the Memphis Grizzlies after being waived by the Knicks, who stretched the remainder of the four-year, $72-million contract they gave him in 2016. He played in 42 games for the Grizzlies and averaged 7.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game while shooting 52% from the field.
Howard, 33, wasn’t healthy last season and only played in nine games while with the Washington Wizards. He had surgery on Nov. 29 to repair a disc in his lower back and missed the rest of the season. Howard spent one injury-plagued season with the Lakers in 2012-13 before leaving in free agency, rejecting the Lakers’ overtures to stay after they acquired him in a trade.
