Continues to struggle Dinwiddie registered seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six assists and two rebounds in the Lakers' 116-112 win against the Clippers on Wednesday.
Impact Since signing with the Lakers on Feb. 10, Dinwiddie hasn't acclimated to his new team, averaging only 5.2 points on 34.3 percent shooting in 24.0 minutes. The former Nets guard has struggled this season, averaging only 12.6 points on 39.1 percent shooting prior to being traded and later released. Despite the 30-year-old's slow start with the Lakers, expect Dinwiddie to continue receiving significant playing time with their guard depth in tatters as the Lakers slowly work back Gabe Vincent (knee).

Impact Dinwiddie's signing is official, and he will likely slide into a platoon role with D'Angelo Russell. Dinwiddie connected on 36.9 percent of 6.2 threes per game last season, but his efficiency has dipped to 32.0 percent on 5.8 threes per game through 48 contests thus far. His combo-guard size could unlock a sizable role in the Lakers' rotation if his shooting can bounce back.

Signs with Lakers The Lakers are signing Dinwiddie to a $1.5 million contract for the remainder of the season Saturday, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Impact Dinwiddie was waived by the Raptors after being traded from Brooklyn in exchange for Thaddeus Young and Dennis Schroder. While the 30-year-old guard started in all 48 of his appearances for the Nets this year, he will likely come off the bench for the Lakers. Once Gabe Vincent (knee) is healthy, he and Dinwiddie are expected to compete for backup point guard minutes behind D'Angelo Russell.

Expected to join Lakers Dinwiddie is expected to sign with the Lakers after he clears waivers, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Dinwiddie has not officially inked a deal with Los Angeles, but that is the expectation as of now. The Lakers and the Mavericks were considered the two most serious teams in pursuit for the veteran point guard's services, but it sounds like he will opt with the former. He averaged 12.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.9 triples across 30.7 minutes in 48 games with the Nets before getting traded to Toronto and subsequently waived.
