Lakers 2022-23 season player grades: Cole Swider

A final look at Cole Swider’s performance this season.

The Los Angeles Lakers have needed better 3-point shooting for a while now, and with limited resources in terms of free agency and the trade market, they have had to get creative to find help.

Last summer, they signed 6-foot-9 forward Cole Swider as an undrafted free agent, hoping they could develop him into one of the snipers they have lacked.

Swider has certainly looked like a project player who will take time to become NBA ready if he ever will does. But it looks like he has some potential if he puts in enough work.
