Lakers consider Jericho Sims as potential addition for roster
Summary

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly eyeing Jericho Sims as a possible target for their roster.

Sources indicate that Sims is a preferred option due to his playing style, which aligns with Doncic’s historical success with similar players in Dallas. The Lakers are in the market for players of this archetype as they build their roster ahead of the upcoming season.
