Even with Rajon Rondo set to miss the next few weeks, the Lakers still have a ton of players vying for minutes at their two guard slots.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will likely replace Avery Bradley as the team’s starter alongside Danny Green, with Alex Caruso stepping up and getting more backup minutes. The team’s last edition before the NBA hiatus, Dion Waiters, will bring ballhandling and shot-creation skills to the table in an attempt to get some minutes. Quinn Cook will provide deadeye shooting for certain lineups, and even rookie Talen Horton-Tucker is getting some buzz during training camp.
