The Los Angeles Lakers made a flurry of moves on Thursday, the first day of NBA free agency.
L.A. agreed to terms with Lonnie Walker IV, Damian Jones, Troy Brown Jr., and Juan Toscano-Anderson on Thursday, adding much-needed youth, athleticism, and length to the roster.
Walker, 23, spent the last four seasons under future Hall of Fame head coach Gregg Popovich and the San Antonio Spurs.
