The Los Angeles Lakers have looked like a relatively more complete team with the addition of Deandre Ayton in free agency. As the players and the executives display contentment with the moves made, it is abundantly clear that the team needs reinforcements to be considered legitimate title contenders.

"Even after the addition of Deandre Ayton, the Los Angeles Lakers could still use some big-man help," Bassett wrote Thursday.

After he displayed some very concerning behavior with the Portland Trail Blazers over the last two years, Ayton has been accused of being a malcontent by critics.
