The real genius move of Pelinka by bringing the Lakers core back

For the first time in years, the Lakers do have two superstars but are building towards a new dynasty, as the genius move and master plan by GM Rob Pelinka goes beyond this 2023-24 campaign.

The team is going all-in to win this season's NBA championship title, by bringing the core back from the last campaign that made it into the WCF and is betting for the first time in the Bron/AD era on continuity.

But the master move by GM Rob Pelinka and coach Ham went on to build a contending team for years to come, these offseason four key re-signings are proof of that.

Our young core hasn't entered its prime yet, with D'Angelo Russell being 27 years old, Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura being 25 years old and Jarred Vanderbilt being 24 years old.

The rookies are also part of the Lakers plan for the future

The five rookies the Lakers have are a real bet on what the Lakers can create with Jalen Hood-Schifino, Maxwell Lewis, Colin Castleton, D'Moi Hodge, and Alex Fudge. And if you count Max Christie, the Lakers have a lot of potential.
