There’s plenty of youth on the Lakers right now, and Johnson’s primary job will get them to be a cohesive unit going forward. Guard D’Angelo Russell and forward Julius Randle will be the Lakers’ cornerstones, and Jordan Clarkson has thrived following the trade of Lou Williams to Houston.
The first-round pick the Lakers acquired in that deal, plus their own in the lottery will be the first chance Johnson gets to make a lasting imprint on the team he led to five NBA titles. It may take a season or two, but there is definitely reason for optimism in L.A. as Johnson and Jeannie Buss begin their makeover of the Lakers.
