Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic has reportedly been an active recruiter this summer to help bring free agents to the team.

Luka Dončić's efforts to help sell prospective targets on the Los Angeles Lakers has eased some of the fears about the five-time All-Star's future in Southern California, according to NBA insider Marc Stein.

The Los Angeles Lakers have waived guard Jordan Goodwin, sources tell ESPN. Goodwin emerged as a key rotation piece for JJ Redick last season, playing 29 games and four playoff contests. Goodwin and Shake Milton were released to clear space for arrival of Marcus Smart.

Los Angeles Lakers are making changes. They are letting go of Shake Milton. This move makes room for Marcus Smart. Smart is a veteran defensive player. He is joining the team on a two-year contract. The Lakers aim to improve their defense.
