The Los Angeles Lakers are coming to the end of their 2017-18 NBA season, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a whole lot still at stake. The upcoming summer will be one of the more important in the team’s history, as they will have the opportunity to make a franchise-altering splash or two that could thrust them back into the title picture.
Most assume this move will come in the form of a free-agent signing thanks to the cap space the Lakers have painstakingly cleared in order to chase the likes of LeBron James and Paul George this summer.
