Now that the Lakers roster is, basically, complete we’re going to start a short series of posts taking a look at a specific part of the team from an angle we find interesting. First up, the Lakers bigs.
The Lakers’ roster now runs 14 players deep. After Kawhi Leonard power-played his way to a Paul George partnership with the Clippers, the Lakers recovered quickly and, I’d argue, smartly in building out the rest of their roster with shooters, finishers, and some solid (to really good) team defenders to flank LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Kyle Kuzma.
