Just over a month into his new job, Lakers GM Rob Pelinka joined assembled media members for a review of the season amidst his exit interviews with each player on the roster.
Below is a summary of the press conference:
- Pelinka said the Lakers are prepared to move forward whether they keep the top-three protected lottery pick or not. Clearly, they’d love to have the asset, but said they would “find a way," and they “have a plan to get where they want to” regardless. Where they want to go, of course, is towards a championship.
