November 26th - In an NBA regular season game, the Lakers hosted the Clippers. Before the game, Lakers General Manager Robert Pelinka spoke about the team's current 12-4 record and third place in the Western Conference. "We've been discussing how to make the roster younger and how to increase roster depth, which has been a focus for us since July. If you look at other teams in the league, those successful teams are all young," Pelinka said. "Every team plays at a fast pace now, and the physicality is intense. We added Deandre Ayton, Jack LaLavia, and Marcus Smart, which increased our physicality, and that was evident early in the season," Pelinka added.
