10. Los Angeles Lakers

You are probably going to disagree with where I have the Los Angeles Lakers ranked on this offseason power rankings but there’s some context that needs to be considered. Even if they don’t acquire Kyrie Irving, the Lakers are still extremely talented.

They have LeBron James and Anthony Davis on the roster. And as long as they are healthy, they will have the chance to be a dangerous team in the Western Conference. And if they manage to land Kyrie, this team will only have a higher ceiling.

There is still plenty that has to be figured out for the Lakers this offseason but with a healthy LeBron and AD, there really is no limit on what this team can accomplish this upcoming season.
