The Los Angeles Lakers are a team that will have championship aspirations next season, as both LeBron James and Anthony Davis are playing at a superstar-level. The key will be surrounding the two superstars with quality role players that can fit around them, and it seems as though the Los Angeles Lakers will do just that.
A recent report from Shams Charania revealed that the Lakers are finalizing a deal with forward Taurean Prince. This is a good acquisition for them, as Prince is known as a solid 3 and D player.

Under coach Darvin Ham, defense and rebounding have been a huge part of the Los Angeles Lakers’ identity, and thus it is easy to see why the team elected to sign Taurean Prince. He is a 6’7 forward with a 6’11” wingspan who can take on tough perimeter assignments for the team.
During the 2022-23 regular season with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Taurean Prince averaged 9.1 PPG, 2.4 RPG, and 1.6 APG while shooting 46.7% from the field and 38.1% from the 3PT range. He will be a very good floor spacer for the team, and he might have a career year playing with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
