LeBron James loves playing with old teammates and veterans who are way past their prime. The Los Angeles Lakers love having a guy named Shaq on the team for the playoffs. So the moves the Lakers made to get two new players for the postseason make a great deal of sense.
The Lakers are signing two players today to add depth for the postseason, sources told ESPN. L.A. will sign guard Shaq Harrison, a defensive-minded point guard, and Tristan Thompson, a veteran center with playoff experience on LeBron James’ teams in Cleveland.
