After an unlikely playoff run, the free agent point guard hopes to return to Los Angeles if the price is right.
Free agent guard Dennis Schroder is returning to the Lakers on a one-year, $2.64 million deal.
On Wednesday, Schroder put up an Instagram post to celebrate his 28th birthday and poke fun at his sizable pay cut.
The Lakers' defense, ranked No. 1 in the NBA during the regular season, will be tested by the league's leading scorer, Stephen Curry, right away to begin the postseason in Wednesday's play-in tournament game against the Warriors
Behind LeBron James, who had 24 points in his first game in nearly two weeks, the Lakers' hopes of avoiding the play-in tournament stayed alive, but many on the team had a let-the-chips-fall-where-they-may attitude on seedings.
LeBron James, sidelined the past six games to continue to recover from a high ankle sprain, is questionable for Saturday's game against the Pacers, and Anthony Davis (groin) is listed as probable.
