   Lakers Champion Praises Walker Kessler as Key to Title Hopes

   Robert Horry, a seven-time NBA champion, believes that Walker Kessler, the Los Angeles Lakers' new center, is crucial to the team's success in the upcoming season. Kessler, who signed a four-year, $129.5 million contract, is expected to provide elite rim protection and three-point shooting, skills the Lakers haven't had since Anthony Davis. Horry hopes Kessler can regain his pre-injury form after missing nearly all of last season due to a shoulder injury.
