Analysis:

Boozer has never played anywhere other than at power forward and center during his 12-year NBA career, so there was a lot of skepticism when the LA Times report was initially released. While the story has yet to be edited online, there has been confirmation from other Lakers beat writers that the report of Boozer playing small forward this season is inaccurate.
