The team will sign Harry Giles III, creating the roster spot by waiving Dylan Windler, according to people with knowledge of the situation who are not authorized to speak publicly on the matter. The Lakers are currently without Christian Wood, who has been out since the All-Star break because of knee inflammation. As a pro, he has played for Sacramento and Portland, and this season appeared in 16 games with Brooklyn. Windler, whom the Lakers signed to a two-way deal in early January, appeared in eight games this season. Currently, the Lakers' roster is at maximum capacity with 15 standard contracts and three two-way players.
