With a new head coach who has never coached above youth league, the team's identity remains uncertain, requiring assessment of key players and potential roster changes.
Establishing a defensive identity seems plausible if players like Jarred Vanderbilt are available and Gabe Vincent bounces back, but overall confidence in roster suitability is low.
The early season will focus on determining the team's identity and molding the roster accordingly, with questions surrounding the Reaves-Russell backcourt performance as well.
The Lakers might explore options beyond the current roster, including players like Jalen Suggs, but past inefficiencies could reflect concerns regarding future contributions.
