With the start of training camp just around the corner, teams across the NBA are looking to make final adjustments to the rosters they will take into camp.
The Los Angeles Lakers recently made some signings to ensure a full roster of players and prospects in camp. They brought in guards Damion Baugh, Bryce Hamilton and Scotty Pippen Jr., as well as forward Vincent Valerio-Bodon.

The Lakers seem to have plenty of depth in the backcourt. Aside from presumptive starters D’Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves, they have Gabe Vincent, a gritty guard they signed away from the Miami Heat in July, plus incoming second-year man Max Christie.
In addition, they may reportedly try free agent acquisition Cam Reddish at the 2 spot, and two-way guard D’Moi Hodge showed promise during summer league play, especially with his 3-point shooting.
