Why The Los Angeles Lakers Do The Deal
We think so. Anunoby won’t be the primary playmaker on this team. That will obviously be LeBron James. He’s one of the best playmakers in NBA history.

Even if they retain D’Angelo Russell, there will be room for Anunoby to handle the ball in this offense.
Frankly, it doesn’t even matter from the Lakers’ perspective. They’re landing one of the best 3-and-D wings in the NBA.
