The Los Angeles Lakers are still finding their most optimal rotation following the many roster changes the team went through during the offseason. Nevertheless, the defending NBA champions have already shown their potential, particularly on the offensive end of the floor.
The Lakers still grapple with consistency, which was a factor in a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers after blowing out the shorthanded Minnesota Timberwolves. The Lakers then responded with back-to-back wins over the San Antonio Spurs, the second of which was a bit of a slog fest.
In their most impressive moments, L.A. has moved the ball well and it has translated into several eye-catching plays since the start of the 2020-21 campaign.
