LeBron James and the Lakers had their season come to an end Wednesday night with a loss to the Timberwolves and after the game James was asked about a player who was traded away by the team earlier this year—Anthony Davis.

LeBron James joked about being traded like Anthony Davis after the Lakers’ playoff exit. Davis wanted a center, but was traded instead, making James cautious about speaking up. Should the Lakers prioritize a center now?

The Lakers' lack of a true center was exploited throughout the series, particularly in Wednesday's matchup. Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, who had not scored more than six points or secured more than 10 rebounds prior to Game 5, dominated with 27 points and 24 boards to send Minnesota to the next round.
