The Lakers still haven’t signed a single player this summer if we put the draft aside.
The franchise was even snubbed this Monday, which is becoming a bad habit for Rob Pelinka. Observers are very worried about what happens next.
While the Lakers claim to play for the title next season, the NBA franchise has still not found a way to improve the quality of its roster until now.
Rob Pelinka had many targets in his sights, with Dejounte Murray and Klay Thompson, but no one agreed to join the City of Angels. Same story for Spencer Dinwiddie this Monday.
New failure for the Lakers
Even if the leader was not the most important player on the roster, his return to solidify the back line would not have been too much for LeBron James and company. Problem: Dinwiddie has decided to return to Texas to sign with the Mavericks, a place where he clearly feels good.
The Lakers were however interested in his return.

The Lakers were interested in bringing back Spencer Dinwiddie, but he ended up choosing the Dallas Mavericks according to Shams Charania.
Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson also chose the Mavs over the Lakers in the last two years.
Difficult to digest we imagine for the Lakers, whose name and history are no longer enough to attract the biggest players in the league.
The stars prefer to look elsewhere with ambitious and perhaps better managed teams. The Rob Pelinka/Jeanie Buss duo is particularly criticized today by supporters.
For Anthony F. Irwin, the Angelinos’ summer is a failure at this point.
For him, the franchise even weakened during the summer.
entrants: Knecht, Bronny
outgoing: Prince, Dinwiddie
I know people don’t like it when I say it, but the roster is now worse than the last time we saw the Lakers. It’s just like that.
The Lakers are having a completely failed summer so far, with Rob Pelinka unable to provide help to LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
Currently with Team USA, the reunion promises to be tense for September.
