Marcus Smart bought out by the Wiz, plans to sign with LAL

[Hey Yo]

Veteran Marcus Smart has agreed to a contract buyout with the Washington Wizards and plans to sign a two-year, $11 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers after clearing waivers, according to ESPN. The 31-year-old, who played in just 54 combined games over the past two seasons due to injuries, brings a strong defensive presence to the Lakers.

Can he rim run?

Nice move, always been high on Smart, he should fit in well as Bronny's backup.

I still dont see the cast around Bron and Bronny being good enough to make LAL top 3 in the West. But adding Smart to the squad cant hurt their chances.

Go ahead and try to tell me this team isn't STACKED.

No excuses.

Play in team if they are lucky

He'll catch a lot of hate for the games where he doesn't hit threes but his jumper does hit some games and defensively he's the kind of guy you need in the backcourt with Doncic. Kind of funny to me that Suggs can get 30 mil per and Smart can only get 5. That's almost completely about youth and "potential."

Smart was making 19 million a year signed in 2022 which is probably pretty comparable to suggs 30 million now. Suggs also shot 40% from 3 2 years ago

That's a great signing. Reminds me of Avery Bradley in 2019.
