NBA 2K18 has released their most recent trailer. In the trailer, the Los Angeles Lakers are one of the teams featured.

Despite a few losing seasons in a row, the Los Angeles Lakers appear to be marching in the right direction. With a good front office led by Magic Johnson, the Lakers are trying to turn things around.

After winning the Summer League Title, there is a lot of hope in Los Angeles for the future of the franchise. In this year’s NBA Draft, the Lakers were able to draft point guard Lonzo Ball. In the Summer League, Ball put on an absolute show, as he was named the Summer League MVP. With two triple-doubles in the tournament, Ball was an easy choice for the award.

In addition to Ball, the Lakers also have another great young player in Brandon Ingram. With his rookie season behind him, Ingram is one of the sophomores that many believe will take a huge step forward this season. Even though he only played in the first Summer League game, he looked like a dominant player on the court.

With a lot of young talent and hope in Los Angeles, the Lakers have once again become relevant in the NBA. As shown in the most recent trailer by NBA 2K18, the Lakers have a prominent role in the trailer.

As you can see, the trailer features Lonzo Ball and his signature shot. In the short clip, it does appear that Ball knocks down a game-winner, as his teammates celebrate with him. Also in the trailer is former Laker, D’Angelo Russell. Even though Russell is now on the Brooklyn Nets, he was seen a couple of times in the trailer.

With the release date of NBA 2K18 getting closer, expect to see more trailers and possible glimpses of more Lakers. When the game is out, it will surely be a lot of fun to play with the Lakers this year.
