In 2018-19 the Los Angeles Lakers were not a very good 3-point shooting team, and they lacked many floor spacing options to help open up the floor. They spent this offseason going out and finding guys who can hit from the 3-point area and they found some of the best on the market in doing so.
Last season the Lakers finished as the second-worst 3-point shooting team in basketball at 33.3% on 31 attempts per game, which was the 17th most in the league. The only team they finished better than was the Phoenix Suns at 32.
