Why The Los Angeles Lakers Do The Deal 

By contrast, the Lakers can’t afford to make two-step plans. They need to improve now. 

After all, LeBron James is 38. Where the Mavericks are built around a star who may not have hit his prime yet, James’ years are fleeting. The Lakers need to give him a better-supporting cast. 

Dinwiddie would be a big addition. He’s a crafty playmaker who can create his shot in the halfcourt. He’d also be a solid floor spacer to pair with James and Russell Westbrook. 

Meanwhile, the Lakers shouldn’t have to surrender a first-round pick to land him. They’d be angling to make a bigger change if they were giving up a first-rounder.
