The Lakers can’t complete the reported signing of Marcus Smart until Wednesday, as he needs to clear waivers, and there’s also a need to free up cap space. Regarding the latter issue, the Lakers have reportedly waived Goodwin to get below the first apron. While he was solid for the Lakers last season, only $25,000 of Goodwin’s salary for the 2025-26 season was guaranteed. Goodwin will likely catch on with another team before next season begins, given his defensive ability. The Lakers also waived Shake Milton earlier Sunday.
