The Los Angeles Lakers continue to make offseason moves.

On Thursday, it was reported that the Lakers are waiving guard Quinn Cook.

Cook played just one season with the Lakers and averaged 5.1 points, 1.1 assists and 1.2 rebounds per game.

While he never carved out a meaningful role for himself in the rotation, he seemed to be well liked amongst his teammates.

His departure won’t have much impact on the team’s cap space, but it could signify that the Lakers are looking to open up a roster spot to make room for an additional acquisition.

As for Cook, he will surely look to sign elsewhere around the NBA. In his young career, Cook has averaged 6.8 points per game.

He already has been part of two championship-winning teams.
