The Los Angeles Lakers have been one of the more aggressive teams in free agency and rightfully so as the 2020-21 season features several title contenders who will look to dethrone the reigning champions.
Vice president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka was able to infuse the roster with youth and talent after trading for Dennis Schroder and agreeing to deals with Montrezl Harrell and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Pelinka also managed to find a suitable replacement for Danny Green after coming to terms with Wes Matthews on one-year deal.
The loss of Dwight Howard to the Philadelphia 76ers left a hole in the middle of the paint and the Lakers cannot expect Anthony Davis to man the center position for the majority of the season.
