Lakers Convert Jordan Goodwin's Contract, Waive Cam Reddish
The Lakers signed Goodwin to a two-year deal, making him playoff-eligible, while releasing Reddish to create roster space.
- Jordan Goodwin's two-way contract was upgraded to a standard two-year NBA deal with a player option for the 2025-26 season.
- The move ensures Goodwin's eligibility for the playoffs after he became a key rotation player, averaging 6.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 19 games.
- Goodwin has significantly improved his 3-point shooting, now hitting 41% from beyond the arc compared to 30.8% earlier in his career.
- Cam Reddish, whose playing time declined under coach JJ Redick, was waived to create the necessary roster spot for Goodwin.
- The Lakers remain under the second salary cap apron, allowing flexibility for additional roster moves ahead of the playoffs.
