#2 Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers are currently the NBA's best team with a 23-3 record, have been great on both ends of the floor and shouldn't be thinking of making wholesale changes this term.

However, the point-guard position is one area of major concern for them. LeBron James has been playing PG this season, but they lack another squad player who can legitimately help James in that role when he's on the bench resting.

Rajon Rondo, Alex Caruso and Quinn Cook are the other guards in the rotation, though none of them have quality to be a bonafide starter and don't deliver reliable numbers either. With that in mind, Schroder would be a great pick-up for the Lakers - affording James ample rest from ball-handling duties, while being allowed to mesh with James and Anthony Davis.
