The Lakers knew that they had to improve the backcourt, especially the point guard position. They did this by making a trade for Dennis Schroder with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Lakers moved to the front court before they signed Montrezl Harrell to come off the bench. They are new additions have been part of the reason why they are so successful once again.

Along the perimeter, Kyle Kuzma has been a trade piece for many years but nothing has happened. He signed an extension in the offseason but that does not mean that he is completely safe.
