The Lakers have waived a player prior to start of training camp

Los Angeles. The Lakers waived Kylor Kelley at the start of training camp, trimming a camp roster after signing him to an Exhibit 10 deal. Kelley, a seven-foot center, spent last season in NBA stints with Dallas and New Orleans and enjoyed solid G League numbers with South Bay. The move comes as L.A. ramps up for preseason against Phoenix and the regular-season opener versus Golden State, keeping options open for a mid-camp addition or a G League call-up.

How should fantasy managers price the Lakers' immediate roster shakeup and the potential return of a defensive big from the G League?Which upcoming preseason matchup provides the best read on Lakers’ frontcourt depth and fantasy upside?What is the realistic ceiling for Kylor Kelley in a potential future NBA role given the current roster dynamics?Which stat categories should fantasy managers prioritize when evaluating a defensive big like Kelley for late-season adds?
