The Los Angeles Lakers have signed center Carson Cooper to a two-way contract and waived Lawson Lovering, according to reports on November 11, 2026.
Cooper, 20, previously played for the Memphis Grizzlies and appeared at their media day at FedEx Forum on September 28, 2026, wearing jersey number 20. The two-way deal allows him to split time between the Lakers and their G League affiliate.
Lovering was released to make room on the roster for the addition of Cooper.
