The Los Angeles Lakers waived Jordan Bell one day after finalizing their trade with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The deal saw the Lakers send JaVale McGee and a future second-round draft pick to the Cavs in exchange for Alfonzo McKinnie and Bell.
Bell was selected by the Chicago Bulls with the 38th pick in the 2017 NBA Draft and promptly traded to the Golden State Warriors for cash considerations. He appeared in 57 games as a rookie, then 68 the following year.
Bell signed a one-year contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves in July of 2019, but also spent a portion of last season with the Memphis Grizzlies.
