New Laker Dorian Finney-Smith excited to try to win with LeBron instead of guarding him
LA TimesDorian Finney-Smith, defending Anthony Davis during a game last season, was acquired by the Lakers on Sunday in a trade that sent D’Angelo Russell, Maxwell Lewis and three second-round draft picks to Brooklyn. It’s been a while, but I’m excited.” The Lakers broke the glass on their trade market Sunday, sending D’Angelo Russell, Maxwell Lewis and three future second-round picks to Brooklyn for Finney-Smith and guard Shake Milton. “He has a desire to win and compete and it doesn’t matter to him if he’s starting or coming off the bench.” Typically, in-season trades are a shock to any player’s system, but for Finney-Smith, he’s been in trade rumors for most of the last two years after Dallas included him in their deal to acquire Kyrie Irving from Brooklyn. “It gives you a lot of confidence because he knows what you can do so you ain’t got to go out there and try to do nothing you can’t,” Finney-Smith said.
