Facing one of the most important offseasons in franchise history, the Los Angeles Lakers received some good news at the lottery and secured the No. 4 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.
Despite the odds being heavily stacked against them, the Lakers managed to add another valuable asset in which they’ll soon determine how to use moving forward.
General manager Rob Pelinka will evaluate all options including whether to keep the pick and add to the young core or attempt to package it for an All-Star player such as Anthony Davis, who hasn’t backed off from his trade demands.
