## Resource

The Lakers just pulled off a major front office upgrade by hiring Rohan Ramadas as assistant GM for strategy and data — a former Pelicans exec with a wild aerospace background and USC ties. Under new owner Mark Walter, this move signals a serious push to rebuild the basketball ops department, with Ramadas set to amplify analytics and cap work. The Lakers, who’ve made the playoffs four straight years, are also eyeing another assistant GM for scouting and player dev — all part of a bigger plan to transform the franchise.
