• Lakers' Skylar Mays: Joins Lakers on two-way deal

  The Lakers signed Mays to a two-way deal Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Mays, who was waived by Portland on Saturday, has quickly found a new home, joining Dylan Windler as a new addition to the Lakers' roster. The Lakers' point guard struggles have been well-documented this season, with Austin Reaves ultimately taking the reins from D'Angelo Russell, who was benched in mid-December. Mays doesn't have a clear path to playing time and will likely spend most of his time at the G League level, but he does bolster the Lakers' guard depth and could crack the rotation if the struggles continue.

The Trail Blazers evidently decided that his roster spot could better be utilized on another player.
