LeBron James must be feeling great right about now. He finally got his wishes, as the Lakers acquired Anthony Davis in a trade with the Pelicans. While the Lakers found a star to pair with The King, there is still a lot of work left to be done.

As it currently stands, the Lakers have just five players under contract for the 2019-20 NBA season. That means they have several roster spots to fill up, mostly with cheap veteran additions. Here are 3 vets that LeBron will choose to fill out the Lakers' roster.

1. Jared Dudley

The Lakers will be looking to add some sharpshooters to the mix this offseason, and Jared Dudley could be a viable option. The 34-year-old is entering unrestricted free agency, and if he's looking to add a ring to his résumé then he would definitely entertain a move to LA.

2. Trevor Ariza

Trevor Ariza is entering his age 35 season, meaning he's probably not going to get a big contract this offseason. That would make him a perfect option for Los Angeles, as his defensive prowess and sharpshooting could be perfect fits for the Lakers. The 15-year veteran may find it worth his while to link up with LeBron and Co.

3. Carmelo Anthony

Could Melo really done LA's Purple and Gold next year? Well, his relationship with LeBron is extremely strong, and if he's willing to take a back seat and come off the bench, he could be a great option for the Lakers. At 35 and a season removed from playing meaningful minutes, this may be Anthony's best option this offseason.
