The Los Angeles Lakers have big plans for the summer of 2019. Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka have worked hard to fix the salary cap mess they inherited from the past regime of Mitch Kupchak and Jim Buss.
Desperate to get back to relevance after Kobe Bryant‘s retirement, Kupchak and Buss threw stupid money at Luol Deng and Timofey Mozgov. Those moves, to the surprise of no one, didn’t pan out as they had hoped.
As a result, they were relieved of their duties and replaced at first by Johnson.
