The Los Angeles Lakers have already kicked off their 2023 NBA Summer League with a game against the Miami Heat. With only one more game left in the California Classic, we take a look at their schedule for the Las Vegas Summer League.

The Los Angeles Lakers have always been a team to look out for in Summer League. Considering that the franchise has usually put forth some intriguing but competitive rosters in each edition, the Lakers will hope to do the same this time around.

With a 107-90 loss in their first game against the Heat, the Lakers go into their final game of the California Classic with some negative momentum.

The Los Angeles Lakers managed to bring in two picks in this year's NBA Draft - Jalen Hood-Schifino and Maxwell Lewis. Both of these players are expected to be on the roster for the Las Vegas Summer League.

Meanwhile, the Lakers will also see a lot of familiar players return for the tournament. The likes of Cole Swider, Max Christie and Scottie Pippen Jr. will all be a part of the team.

A familiar face in Sacha Killeya-Jones will also be on the roster for the Lakers in the Summer League. The big man has consistently shown up for the team during the tournament. Other players include LJ Figueroa, Damion Baugh, Colin Castleton, Alex Fudge, D'Moi Hodge and Bryce Hamilton.

Looking at the box score from the Heat game, it is evident that the Lakers have some work to do. With the roster still finding its rhythm, the Purple and Gold could produce some surprises in Las Vegas this year.
