Be careful, Giannis Antetokounmpo—Christian Wood has you in his sights.

It's hard to imagine that a two-time MVP like Antetokounmpo will be too concerned. Wood is expected to serve as a backup center for the Lakers this season, though with LeBron James missing Saturday's contest, he got the start.

More than likely, however, he'll see the backup minutes at the 5 behind Anthony Davis. And he'll have a little something extra off the bench when the Bucks and Lakers face off on March 8 in Los Angeles.
