Los Angeles Lakers: Summer League Roster, Key Storylines

The Los Angeles Lakers are sitting pretty heading into the 2012-13 season, after trading for Steve Nash and creating one of the most fearsome starting lineups in the NBA.

With Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, Andrew Bynum and Steve Nash running the show, the Lakers are going to be a very dangerous team during the 2012-13 season. Those players won't be able to do it alone, though.

The Lakers will need to fill out their depth chart with young players who can be signed to low-level minimum contracts, and that's where the 2012 summer league comes in. Players like Darius Johnson-Odom, Andrew Goudelock, Robert Sacre and Christian Eyenge are going to be competing for a spot on the Lakers' talented roster, where they can be a productive member of a team pursuing an NBA title.

Ahead is a breakdown of the Lakers' summer league roster and the top storylines to watch as the Lakers look to find their depth heading into the 2012-13 season.
