The Los Angeles Lakers wing depth has been completely decimated over the past month thanks to a combination of trades, injuries, and just some bad luck. The first move was dealing away Jordan Clarkson at the trade deadline.
Not long after, the team decided to release veteran Corey Brewer and in a cruel bit of luck, rookie Josh Hart fractured a bone in his hand in practice just hours later. A strained groin has sidelined Brandon Ingram, and Kyle Kuzma missed one game with a sprained right ankle.
With so many losses, head coach Luke Walton has had to turn to some unlikely faces, namely 10-day contract players Travis Wear and Derrick Williams.
