Summary
What a 24 hours for the Lakers, who see Russell Westbrook and Avery Bradley join Dwight Howard and Talen Horton-Tucker in the health and safety protocols, Malik Monk produce negative tests and be able to rejoin the team, and the signing of Isaiah Thomas as a backup guard with a hardship exemption.

Later, the guys dive into how Frank Vogel might handle the rotation and some specifics they're looking forward to in Friday's matchup with the T'Wolves.
