The Los Angeles Lakers had a very strong offseason this summer, and expectations are high in Los Angeles.
Due to the trade for Anthony Davis, this is a very different looking team compared to last season. While most of the young core for the Lakers is now playing in New Orleans, the Lakers did hold on to Kyle Kuzma.
Kuzma was a steal for the Lakers late in the first round of the 2017 NBA Draft, as it became apparent rather quickly that Kuzma was going to be a good scorer in the NBA.
