The Lakers have 13 players signed to standard NBA contracts, leaving them two open roster spots.

Pelinka said the greatest likelihood is that they’ll “fill the 14th position before training camp,” before adding “the 15th one is more open.”

The 6-foot-10 Wood, who’s a Long Beach native, has shot 37.9% on 3-pointers for his career. He’s made 38.1% of his 3s over the previous three seasons. “Dimensionalizing the skills at that position would be important,” Pelinka said. “So we don’t want to sign someone who replicates the skills that Jaxson Hayes has. So if we can diversify the big position and have different looks, that would be good.”

They accomplished that goal, re-signing forward Rui Hachimura , guard Austin Reaves and D’Angelo Russell .“We talked a lot after the trade deadline about that being kind of a ‘pre-[free] agency,’ sort of a precursor to what we wanted to do this offseason,” Pelinka said. “And I said over and over that continuity was going to be important, keeping together the core of the success we had with the run we went on to the Western Conference finals. And we were able to do that.
