3 targets that could solidify the Los Angeles Lakers’ outside shooting. 

The Los Angeles Lakers did a great job of retooling the roster around LeBron James and Anthony Davis after falling in the first round of the playoffs last season. Though if there’s still one concern surrounding this team (apart from the questions about roster fit), it has to be whether or not they added enough shooting.

Even though the Lakers added a few players that are coming off seasons in which they shot 40-plus percent shooting from 3-point range, there isn’t any team in the league that could ever have enough shooting on their roster. Especially with the way the NBA has evolved over the last few seasons.

For a team that is coming off a season in which they were in the bottom third in the league in 3-point shooting, it was important that the Lakers add more than enough shooters in preparation for the new season. Did they add enough? If not, we explore three potential targets that could potentially fill a void for the Lakers.
