The Los Angeles Lakers are going to be one of the most interesting teams to watch next season. Before that, the Lakers need to answer three questions.

Any team that has LeBron James is going to be in the spotlight. However, the Los Angeles Lakers with LeBron James may be the most interesting team to watch this decade. Not only is James a massive star in his own right, the Lakers are arguably the most recognizable NBA franchise throughout the world.

It is not just the star power of James and Los Angeles that makes this team so interesting, either. The Lakers boast a young supporting cast, all with massive ceilings. Los Angeles has three legitimate future all-stars in Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Kyle Kuzma. Josh Hart can even be thrown into that mix.

It does not stop there, either, as the Lakers have some of the most interesting personalities in basketball all on one roster. Whether that is a good or bad thing depends on who you ask.

Lance Stephenson is a great character, JaVale McGee is a Shaqtin’ a Fool legend and new signing Michael Beasley is going to bring a fun dynamic alongside James.

And let’s not forget about LaVar Ball, who continues to fill headlines by saying outlandish things, such as his ability to beat LeBron James in a one-on-one basketball game.
