27yo Robert Williams is back and looks like he never left!
Such an impressive player when he's healthy. We can only hope that he stays fit because his mix of mobility, hands, finishing, short roll passing, rim protection, and offensive glass dominance is a blast to watch. https://t.co/i6kHoEpeu1 pic.twitter.com/gEvc9WnDYM

Step One: Trade Gabe Vincent, Christian Wood, and three second-round picks for Jonas Valanciunas.
Sign Markelle Fultz.
Trade D’Angelo Russell, Rui Hachimura, Jalen Hood-Schifino, Cam Reddish, one FRP, one lottery-protected FRP to Nets for Dorian Finney Smith, Cameron Johnson.

Of the Lakers listed, only Hachimura (and, to a lesser extent, Vincent) was slated to play a key role in the rotation in the upcoming postseason.
