Film Study: The Lakers’ new-look starting lineup

The Los Angeles Lakers have been through the wringer with their roster this season, whether due to injuries or the massive trade deadline deals that completely shook up the team. Inherent with that instability has been a number of different starting lineups (and rotations in general) as well as uncertainty, most recently leading to the inclusion of one Austin Reaves to help balance the group.

However, the team may have finally formed and found their Voltron five vs. the Chicago Bulls, as they finally fielded a nearly fully healthy team — outside of Mo Bamba, who continues to rehab from a high ankle sprain and will be re-evaluated next week — and started, in my opinion, their best possible starting lineup:

D’Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, Jarred Vanderbilt, LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
