The Los Angeles Lakers have only made one trade this year so far. They decided to ship out D'Angelo Russell in return for Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton. Milton has already fallen out of the rotation in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Lakers made a big move in December, dealing away point guard D’Angelo Russell and Maxwell Lewis along with three second-round picks to the Brooklyn Nets for Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton.

Brooklyn Nets guard D’Angelo Russell makes a controversial statement when asked to describe his new role following a trade from the Los Angeles Lakers.
