When Dennis Schröder left the Lakers after his first stint in Los Angeles, it came under some of the oddest of circumstances. Despite a strong season, the two sides couldn’t come to an agreement on a future together.
And so, after once (possibly) being offered an $84 million extension, Schröder and the Lakers parted ways in free agency and the guard never truly found a landing spot, splitting time between Boston and Houston but never really flourishing in either location. The Lakers didn’t exactly knock it out of the park with Schröder’s replacement either.
