I'm Mungish Articular, and I'm back with a new season of my podcast, Skyline Drive.
This time I talk to scientists, biopunks, curmudgeons, blues owners, super seniors, and Goa's top cryotherapy lab to try to understand this obsession with living forever and what it means for all of us. And I get into a bit of trouble along the way.
I'd say probably start bone smashing. That doesn't work. Make it look more defined. They say it works. I don't know.

You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Jovan Buha, NBA reporter and analyst, host of Buha's Block podcast. Got really good stuff, really good insight on the Lakers. And it's fascinating today because so often he's going to now join us live. So often I hear about trades and I bite. I think there's something there. I heard what now we all know the Lakers need a three and D wing. They need more athleticism. Cameron Carr is going to help, but he's a kid. You're not going to get too many minutes, but it's nice. It's a start.
He's athletic. He's a shooter. They also need a rim protector. So I saw this. I've seen the Jalen Duren, who was third team all NBA, kind of disappeared in the playoffs. He's seeking big money. And everybody said, okay, there's the Lakers answer. And I'm like, that's a lot of money. That doesn't feel like a fit. Give me some clarity on the Pistons all-star and the Lakers need for a big. Would that thing work at all? I think it would work. I just don't think it's realistic. I think with the Pistons trading Isaiah Stewart, that clarified their center position. And to me, they're going to move forward with Jalen Duren and Paul Reed. And so them losing Isaiah Stewart and Jalen Duren, I think would be catastrophic if you're the Pistons.
So he's a guy that I think there are some restricted free agents that the Lakers could pursue. And if they outbid their incumbent team, they could poach that guy away. Dern is the one where I think even if you offer him a max contract, Detroit is reluctantly going to match it, but I think they're going to match it. Walker Kessler makes sense. Now, Utah made him an offer, about $30 million annually. He said no. He's what the Lakers need.
