Two big players leave the team! The Lakers' 11-man rotation for the new season is basically confirmed, and the starting lineup is still top-notch

Now that the NBA free agency market has calmed down, it will be difficult for the Lakers to make any trade moves next. They will most likely start the season with their current squad. This offseason, the Lakers have two key players leaving: Prince and Dinwiddie. The Lakers didn't have any substantial reinforcements this offseason. So at the moment, they can basically confirm the rotation for next season.

With the departures of Prince and Dinwiddie, Christie will get more playing time next season and will officially enter the rotation. If nothing else, the Lakers will have an 11-man rotation next season. The starting lineup will consist of James, Davis, Reaves, Russell and Hachimura. The bench lineup consisted of Vincent, Hayes, Christie, Vanderbilt and Reddish, with Wood as an alternate.

When we analyze this lineup, you will see that their starting lineup is still among the best in the league. Judges, Davis, of course, needless to say. James still showed very strong dominance at this year's Olympics and is still the core force of the United States men's basketball team. And Davis is currently in his prime. And next season, Redick will use Davis as the offensive core, so Davis's stats will also improve next season. Probably play a dominant performance.

Among the other starting lineups, Hachimura's performance should be worth looking forward to. Through this year's Olympic Games, we can see that Hachimura has a significant increase, and if Hachimura can continue to be efficient in the starting lineup next season, it will still be crucial for the Lakers.

The backup lineup, the Lakers, may rely on Vincent to get back on track next season, and Vincent has not been able to face the game in a relatively healthy state due to injuries last season. Hopefully, Vincent, who is fully healthy next season, can replicate his performance during his time with the Heat. If Vincent can play during the Heat playoffs, the Lakers' bench lineup is still worth looking forward to. In addition, Christie may have more opportunities next season, and whether he can improve is also a crucial point for the Lakers. After all, Christie's overall skills are still good, and what he lacks is on-court experience and playing time.

If Redick is a coach who likes to expand his rotation next season, maybe Kneckt will get some playing time as well. It was clear from this year's Summer League that Kneckt was a perfect fit for Redick's system. Redick is also a goalscorer-turned-player, so he might like Knecht as a player. What the Lakers can play next season is down to the coach's adjustment of the team. If Redick is a very good coaching player, maybe the Lakers will have a new look for the new season. The Lakers lost a lot of games last season that they shouldn't have lost, and hopefully Redick can make a qualitative change to the team after the coach change.
