The Los Angeles Lakers 2020–21 were led by LeBron James and Anthony Davis, whose combination of playmaking, scoring, rebounding, and interior defense remained the foundation of the team despite both missing significant time. Dennis Schröder provided secondary ball-handling and scoring, while Montrezl Harrell and Kyle Kuzma added frontcourt production.
