The Lakers are in desperate need of a center after the Luka Doncic trade as multiple names have been floated around the league.

Kristaps Porziņģis, who played alongside Dončić in Dallas for 2 1/2 seasons, sounded as surprised as anyone. Porziņģis said his phone wasn’t working, so he learned about the trade when someone told him about it on the streets of Philadelphia, where the Celtics were in town to meet the Philadelphia 76ers.

It won't be easy, but Boston is more equipped to handle the LeBron James and Luka Doncic duo than most. The post How the Lakers-Mavericks blockbuster trade affects the Celtics appeared first on Boston.
