2018 NBA Power Rankings: It’s time to sell on the Cleveland Cavaliers
26. Los Angeles Lakers (15-27)
The Los Angeles Lakers have been in the news lately in large part because of LaVar Ball, but they’ve actually been playing better as of late. When they’re on, they can beat any team in the league. When they’re off, though, they’re terrible.
Kyle Kuzma has been a tremendous find for this team, and Lonzo Ball continues to show progress. They probably need to trade trade Julius Randle ahead of the trade deadline and a few other players could be available to.
We’re at the “get ready for a LeBron push” level of the season for LA. Which is also why you’ve heard the Dave Fizdale to the Lakers rumor. He’s one of LeBron’s guys.
