Your Los Angeles Lakers may not be done making moves in the buyout market. After agreeing to sign veteran ex-Brooklyn Nets point guard Spencer Dinwiddie once he clears waivers, there’s a possibility the Purple and Gold could add another player in the buyout, per league expert Yossi Gozlan. Following the Dinwiddie signing, the Lakers will have all 15 standard roster spots spoken for, and would have to cut someone for a subsequent move.
The Los Angeles Lakers won the 2024 NBA In-Season Tournament, but haven’t quite lived up to their billing as Western Conference Championship contenders just yet. The Lakers’ recent signing of Spencer Dinwiddie has fans and new teammates alike excited, however.
With the Lakers preparing for Dinwiddie’s arrival on the court, Christian Wood revealed a key aspect of how the team was able to bring him to Tinseltown and how he factored into the equation.
The Lakers could use some help at the point guard position considering Austin Reaves and D’Angelo Russell are their two leading assist men currently behind LeBron James who is more of a point forward.
The rise of ‘positionless’ basketball doesn’t take away from Dinwiddie’s skills as a player who mostly hangs around the perimeter and can drive, pass, and shoot from deep like a true triple threat.
