Walker Kessler
Kessler's four-year, $130 million deal makes him a central part of the Lakers' defense, with limited traditional center depth behind him and Kevon Looney. He played only five games last season after left shoulder surgery, so his fantasy value depends on staying healthy and building on increased three-point attempts.Yahoo
