The Los Angeles Lakers are looking to build a roster that can get over the hump and compete for the 18th championship in franchise history. Rob Pelinka and the front office did a great job of rebuilding the roster during the season and now it just needs some additional touches.
Lakers fans shouldn’t expect a radically different roster, even with the guaranteed departures of Mo Bamba and Malik Beasley (at their old price points, at least). Los Angeles just needs some tweaks, whether that be one big new addition or supplemental pieces.
Luckily, the Lakers have a lot more flexibility than they did a year ago.
