Los Angeles Lakers post free agency starting lineup prediction

The Los Angeles Lakers have revamped their roster this offseason. Who may we see in the starting five once the games start to count?

With the preseason rapidly approaching, it is time to take a look at what the Los Angeles Lakers have done in free agency and how it will affect their roster.

With Kawhi Leonard heading to the Lakers bitter city rivals, the Los Angeles Clippers, it is very easy to say that free agency was a failure for the Lakers. They missed out on a player in Kawhi Leonard who would have allowed them to dominate the Western Conference for the foreseeable future.

Imagining LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard will have to remain an unfulfilled dream for Lakers fans. However, the Lakers were able to move quickly after this big let down and secured a number of players who fit in with what the Lakers are trying to do this season.

While it can be argued whether the Lakers are better off now with depth or if they would be better off with a third true superstar caliber player, that can be discussed in a future article.

The Lakers were able to add Danny Green, Troy Daniels, Quinn Cook, DeMarcus Cousins, Avery Bradley and Jared Dudley via free agency. They were able to also bring back Rajon Rondo, JaVale McGee and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope whilst also drafting Talen Horton-Tucker.

One thing is for certain; the Lakers roster looks vastly different than the one going into the regular season last season. No Brandon Ingram, no Lonzo Ball and no Josh Hart. While it was hard to see players we had invested a lot of time into and had come to greatly appreciate moved, landing a superstar like Anthony Davis cushioned the blow.

Here is what the Lakers Starting Line up should look like going into the 2019-20 NBA season.
