The latter, remember, was a Lakers free agent target two summers ago before Valančiūnas opted to sign a multiyear deal with Washington instead. Sources say that the Lakers' interest, furthermore, is certainly welcomed by the Nuggets, who have made Valančiūnas available in trade conversations since Denver's season ended and especially in connection with the recent draft as the Nuggets explored various deals while also shopping the No. 26 overall pick.

That is sort of strange imo. I assume that this is conjunction with adding someone via clearing some $ that has fallen thru the cracks. I thought that was the first step in moving Ayton. How they do it will be interesting. I can't believe they can find value in the guys they are looking to move.
IMO, I think Mamu will be their backup center and a third center will be added to fill in with injuries.
