MUCH more athletic than Russell, NOT as good a scorer, MUCH MUCH better defensive player, PURE shooting guard, NOT a playmaker, NOT a ball dominant guard like DAR. This is a much better fit for Lonzo and allows Clarkson to come off the bench. I believe that both Clarkson and Russell might still be traded. Here's one I came up with. In this scenario, the Lakers also get a #1 pick. They can waive and stretch Robin Lopez after next season, or even trade him. That will free up the cap space that Magic needs for next summer.

It's becoming crystal clear that Magic has taken the franchise on his shoulders and is forging a path to success. A chess match that he learned from Jerry, Mitch and other NBA movers and shakers. It's a whole new era in LakerLand!

Nice pay day. If he has a great season, he sets himself up for a nice long term deal. Win-win.

I suppose that's a sign that 1) he's kind of worth it(?) and 2) we're not dropping big $$ on any other youngsters anytime soon.
