Report: Montrezl Harrell agrees to two-year deal with Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers have agreed to sign a significant free agent, and it’s someone who’s seemingly out of left field.

The team is reportedly finalizing a deal with big man Montrezl Harrell.

Harrell is 26 years of age and has played the past three seasons with the Los Angeles Clippers.

This past season, he played a pivotal role for a team that was thought to be one of the favorites to win the NBA championship.

Harrell put up 18.6 points and 7.1 rebounds a game while shooting 58.0 percent from the field.

At 6-foot-8 and 240 pounds, Harrell would project to possibly be the Lakers’ new backup center, as well as give them more depth at the 4 spot.

His ability to rebound, run the floor and finish strong at the rim would help the Purple and Gold, as would his feistiness.

He has been an avid NBA fan since he was a little kid in the mid '90s and fell in love with the Nick Van Exel-led Lakers teams. He truly cherishes the Kobe Bryant-era of Lakers basketball and the five world championships that came with it, and is looking forward to the team's next NBA title.
