The Lakers' run in the playoffs has revealed that they are a team with a lot of depth and flexibility. While a number of players that comprise that depth are set for free agency, the Lakers have the ability to retain them all and keep that depth.
That depth will allow the Lakers some flexibility in the upcoming NBA Draft. Tuesday’s lottery cemented the entire order for the upcoming draft, though it didn’t change the Lakers picking No. 17 and No. 47.
The newest slate of mock drafts represents the flexibility the Lakers will have going into the draft.
