The Lakers really have both a present and a future!
Take a look at their personnel roster for this season, and the age mix is reasonable, with the old with the new:
Hays: 23 years old
Davis: 30 years old
James: 38 years old
Van Debiao: 24 years old
Hachimura: 25 years old
Reddish: 23 years old
Lewis: 20 years old
Prince: 29 years old
Rivers: 25 years old
Christie: 20 years old
Russell: 27 years old
Xifino: 20 years old
Vincent: 27 years old
There are 13 people in total, with an average age of 25.5 years, which is the youngest team in the league. The oldest on the team is James, and the second oldest is Davis. The rest are basically under the age of 27.
In the past two seasons, James has played and fought for the championship, and when James retires, he will get a supergiant and thick eyebrow partner, and the Lakers are still championship contenders.
If Xiaoli can grow to the level of Ginobili, the Lakers will make a lot of money!
