The Los Angeles Lakers will attempt to improve their roster in free agency this summer, with the team needing to upgrade their talent in order to right the ship. They have a mountain of cap space to play with, but competition for the top free agents will be fierce thanks to a jump in the salary cap providing nearly every team with money to spend.
However, the Lakers won’t solely focus on improving their starting lineup. They need to round out their bench as well, and ideally would like to add steady, hard-working veterans who can help teach their young core how to be professionals.
