EDGE Analysis

If Anthony can stay healthy, he could prove to be the Lakers'missing link for success. The team is tinkering with several starting lineups since the departure of Anthony Davis, and it may only be a matter of time before Frank Vogel asks the veteran to turn it up down the stretch. He could be a valuable sleeper add off the waiver wire as the team enters a critical period in the season.
