Los Angeles Lakers recently signed Spencer Dinwiddie as a free agent, right after the end of the transfer window.
The mid-season transfer window came to an end on Thursday as teams finalised their strategy to strengthen their contingent for the remainder of the season.
According to ESPN’s reporter Dave McMenamin, the Lakers signed Dinwiddie on a non-tax level exception. Therefore, if they went on to win the NBA championship, they would end up getting just a single dollar return.
Signing a player on such terms does not make a lot of sense but well, the Lakers had not much option, especially considering how they were not able to bring in anyone on the deadline day despite being linked with a host of players.
The Lakers are going through a rather disappointing season where they are placed on the fourth position in the Pacific Standings with 28 wins and 26 defeats.
However, recently, the side has managed to gather some positive results and won their last four out of five matches. In the previous outing, the Lakers defeated the New Orleans Pelicans with a score of 122-139 at the crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Friday.
The star of the show for the home side in that match was D'Angelo Russell who ended up registering 30 points to go with two rebounds and five assists.
