Lakers Won't Change Starting Lineup, Will Bring Dorian Finney-Smith Off Bench
The Los Angeles Lakers will not change their starting lineup of LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura and Max Christie following their acquisition of Dorian Finney-Smith. "We're in a good spot with our starting group right now," Redick said. "So, he'll play and he'll come off the bench, and like I've told you guys several times, I want consistency with that group, but I'm not going to be stubborn and locked into something if it's not working. But it's working right now, and [Finney-Smith] is a guy that can fit in very easily with any lineup and any sort of roster." Finney-Smith makes $14.9 million this season and gives the Lakers a boost as a three-and-D wing. "Dorian gives us another defender and he's a guy that has guarded multiple positions throughout his career," Redick said. "He's worked to become an elite spot-up, catch-and-shoot 3-point shooter. So, just excited to have him."
