Terrence Ross

The Los Angeles Lakers could use some more scoring punch off their bench this season and Terrence Ross would provide that.

Ross has developed into one of the best sixth men in the NBA during his time with the Orlando Magic. He has always been a spark plug when it came to scoring points, as he averaged a career-high 15.6 points per game this season.

His 3-point percentage of 33.7 was below his career average of 36.7 and some of that can be attributed to the injuries the Magic had.

Orlando lost all of their point guards at different points of the season, putting a lot of onus on Ross to create for himself. His efficiency waned as a result, as he is better off having someone set the table for him, which takes advantage of his ability to move without the ball in his hands.

Ross has begun rounding out his game to be more than just a scorer. He has improved as a playmaker, partly out of necessity with the injuries Orlando had. The Washington product has also been a solid defender, giving the Lakers some two-way play they receive inconsistently from everyone outside of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
