From the top Twitter comment

Lakers now have acquired the # 8, #9 and #10 picks from the 2019 draft. The same draft that saw them send their pick to NOP as part of the AD trade (a pick which turned into Hayes, via Atlanta)

  1. Jaxon Hayes
  2. Rui Hachimura
  3. Cam Reddish

This could allow AD to go back to the 4 where he's more comfortable but we'll see

Nah I think AD has to play center. Jaxson is just not a starting center in the NBA

Yeah, I've thought about it since posting, and came to the same conclusion you did. When he first started I had high hopes for him, but he just hasn't developed much. Not to mention, when given opportunities, he rarely played well.
