The Los Angeles Lakers watched Spencer Dinwiddie struggle to close the 2023-24 season, and he is already having issues with the Hornets. Charlotte is his fourth team in three seasons, and the 32-year-old guard was already catching social media heat in the preseason. He finished with six points, four assists, and three rebounds on Oct. 11 against the Mavericks, but the Hornets were outscored by 18 points in his 19 minutes. Dinwiddie can put up numbers, but with a negative impact on winning.
After his 2024 buyout from the Raptors, Dinwiddie chose the Lakers.
