After a disappointing finish to the 2020-21 season, the Los Angeles Lakers made a ton of roster changes this summer, starting with their blockbuster acquisition of Russell Westbrook.
Understanding they need to surround Westbrook, LeBron James and Anthony Davis with shooters, the Lakers did exactly that by bringing in some quality veterans like Carmelo Anthony, Wayne Ellington, Trevor Ariza and Kent Bazemore.
L.A. also added some rim protection with the addition of Dwight Howard once again and also brought in some youth with Talen Horton-Tucker, Malik Monk and Kendrick Nunn.
While the summer has been busy for the Lakers, it’s not done yet as they still have three available roster spots.
