The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to pursue Trevor Ariza, according to sources.

Ariza won the 2009 NBA championship with the Lakers.

Ariza is also expected to receive interest from the Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons, Clippers and Phoenix Suns.

Ariza averaged 14.4 points for the Washington Wizards this past season and told the Washington Post that he hopes to re-sign with the team.

Martell Webster underwent successful microdisectomy surgery on Thursday to repair a herniated disc in his lower back. 

He will begin the rehab process immediately and is expected to miss approximately three to five months before resuming basketball activity.

Webster sustained the injury during a routine workout at the Washington Wizards’ practice facility last week. 

Webster averaged 9.7 points and 2.8 rebounds while shooting .392 from three-point range in 78 games (13 starts) for the Wizards last season.
