[Charania] 7-footer Christian Koloko is finalizing a return to the NBA and the Los Angeles Lakers are frontrunners to sign him among Raptors, Clippers and Spurs, sources tell @TheAthletic. Koloko is awaiting clearance to play from NBA’s fitness panel; however, he is eligible to sign now.

Well the Lakers need center help…
Back the fuck off he’s a raptor
It’s so stupid that we don’t keep rights on him. Like I know we waived him but we would have never waived him if he didn’t have this medical issue.
Wow first and foremost happy he can play basketball again after blood clot stuff
From what he showed on court, he could be really good get for lakers, loved him on raptors
Definitely better Jaxon Hayes
Us Toronto fans automatically assumed he’d sign back with us lmao
Good for him man, blood clots are nothing to mess with and I’m happy he was able to make his way back
NOOOO NOT THE LAKERS
On a serious note, very happy he’s on the cusp of returning to the league and can play again. Fantastic news for him.
I swear if he goes to the Clippers that will be like the 4th raptor Kawhi has stolen from us. Bro could’ve just stayed and won in 2020 smh.
Will Rob finally do something?
7ft you say ?
Yeah he’s not signing here
Edit: also curious how the lakers could even make space for him, all our roster spots are already filled
Lakers are not getting enough slander for doing absolutely nothing this offseason. Either that, or I’m just not seeing it.
I’ll believe it when I see it. We have shit free agency luck
byr bye cam reddish
Didn’t Cedi decline a training camp invite bc the Lakers couldn’t guarantee a roster spot? Is Koloko getting a guarantee bc if not, then why choose the Lakers? If he makes it, then Rob needs to make another move.
HES OURS FUCK OFF
We’ve been fucking cursed at Center since 2020. What the fuck man I’m happy for Koloko but this would sting so much
need some holy water to ward off the evil lakers.
Hell yeah. Good for him.
Koloko + Wemby frontcourt would be crazy
How many 7 footers does AD need?
Just some filler for the DLo/2031 1st for Wemby trade that will be speculated about by writers in February.
Warriors def don’t want him
Clippers with three 7-ft centers. I’m into it!
But for real, he’d probably have a better chance of playing time for Lakers – they would just have to waive Wood or Hayes.
Dudes a raptor let’s be real here
Filipino Laker fans are gonna have fun with his name
