While the Los Angeles Lakers didn’t make many changes to their original roster during the 2019-20 NBA season, they did work with Troy Daniels to waive him and sign Dion Waiters instead.
Daniels and the Lakers agreed to him being waived due to his low playing time to give him a chance to sign with another contender, which he did with the Denver Nuggets.
Daniels praised the Lakers for being open with him about his role and giving him an opportunity to sign elsewhere. NBA teams usually don’t put the players first the way the Lakers organization does because of their family-oriented ideals.
