Why The Los Angeles Lakers Do The Deal
Well, one thing is sure. Johnson is a good fit with the Lakers.
Realistically, Johnson is a good fit with any team. This guy is an archetypical 3-and-D wing. He’s one of the best floor spacers in the league, and he can guard multiple positions.
With that said, that’s especially valuable alongside James. The book has been written on how to build around LeBron for a long time – surround him with shooting. This deal finally has the Lakers doing it.
Meanwhile, they shouldn’t worry about surrendering swap rights. The year 2029 is a long time away, and James is on the tail end of his prime right now.
