When Dennis Schröder decided to come back to Los Angeles last summer, he vowed to make up for his stint in 2021. This time, he didn’t demand to be the starting point guard of the team nor was he playing for a lucrative contract extension. Being one of the last few quality free agents in the market, all Schröder wanted was a second chance with the purple and gold.
Thanks to his stellar performance in the FIBA EuroBasket last summer, Schröder redeemed his value and eventually signed a minimum contract with the Lakers.
