With the Los Angeles Lakers set to start training camp in less than a week, let’s take a look at how the festivities could play out for a franchise on the rise.
On Sept. 27, the Los Angeles Lakers officially begin their 2016-17 season with the start of training camp. It’s the first step in what should be an interesting campaign for a team trying to claw its way back to contention.
So what can we expect when the fun gets under way next Tuesday? No one knows for sure, but you better believe there will be plenty of eyes on the Purple and Gold as they head into a 2016-17 season shrouded in mystery.
They’ve stockpiled some high-upside prospects who appear eager to put it all together. They also added some high-priced veterans this offseason, and will be desperately hoping they pan out as quality contributors on this team overflowing with inexperienced options.
For now, let’s focus on the upcoming camp and all of the wonder it brings with it.
