Entering the 2020 NBA Draft, the Los Angeles Lakers do not hold a draft pick, but they did not have a pick entering last season’s draft and ended up with Talen Horton-Tucker.
Going into this week the Los Angeles Lakers held on to the 28th pick in the upcoming NBA draft on Thursday, but they made a deal that sent that pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder and brought back the league’s sixth man of the year runner-up Dennis Schröder.
