The Lakers still have the $3 million mini mid-level exception available to sign an incoming free agent, though Mitch Kupchak would be surprised if the team uses it.

“We look to add value,” Kupchak said. “We have a mini mid-level still available but I think it’s unlikely we’d use it unless there’s an incredible value out there.”

The Lakers may not be done tinkering with their roster.

“You can always get better,” Kupchak said. “We still feel we have another roster spot or two to look at it. Maybe a back court player.”
