Los Angeles Lakers: Which Lakers are among LeBron’s best teammates?
By Jason Reed
LeBron James decided to take his talents to the Los Angeles Lakers and play with a roster that is unlike any other roster he has played for in his career.
LeBron James has won three NBA Championships and has made it to eight consecutive Finals. James has won a championship with two different teams and has plenty of teammates throughout his career.
Some of those teammates were other superstars and helped James win his titles and others were difference makers. Heck, some did not do much in their time with James at all, like Isaiah Thomas in his short stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Ironically, it was trading for Thomas that allowed the Los Angeles Lakers to open up the cap space to sign LeBron this summer. Now, James has an interesting role on a young team that is hungry to relive the glory days of the Lakers.
The young core certainly is talented but still presents an entirely new challenge to James. Nobody on the team is yet a superstar.
However, there is still a lot of talent on the roster and his teammates this season do not fall too behind those of the past. Here are LeBron’s best teammates by position, including some Lakers.
