Here’s today’s HoopGrids:
For today’s NBA HoopGrids, let’s try to answer Grids 7 and 8. Which LA Lakers players have also played for either the Denver Nuggets or the Cleveland Cavaliers?
Carmelo Anthony is probably the best player to have suited for the Lakers and Nuggets. Anthony started his career in Denver and was an amazing scorer for the Nuggets. He finished his career with the Lakers back in the 2021-22 NBA season.
Another possible and popular answer for Grid 7 is Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. He won a championship for both the Lakers (2020) and the Nuggets (2023).
Meanwhile, the answer for Grid 8 is very obvious. LeBron James has played for the Cavaliers and the Lakers. He had two stints with the Cavaliers, winning a title there in 2016. He took his talents to Hollywood two years later and won his fourth NBA championship in 2020.
It should also be noted that JaVale McGee and Isaiah Thomas have played for the Lakers, Nuggets and Cavaliers during their careers.
