The Lakers have signed defensive wing Matisse Thybulle to a one-year, $3.3 million veteran minimum contract, aiming to bolster their roster with a 3&D player. Thybulle, a two-time All-Defensive Team member, has shown improved shooting, hitting 43.8% and 39.8% from beyond the arc in the last two seasons, though concerns about his health persist due to limited playtime from injuries. The signing brings the Lakers to 16 contracts, necessitating a trade or waiver of a player. They are exploring trades involving Jonathan Kuminga, Dalton Knecht, and others to create roster space.
