Goodwin’s return comes after a promising stint in the NBA, demonstrating his skills as a versatile player capable of contributing to both the Lakers’ roster and their G League affiliate.
The 24-year-old from Saint Louis University made a notable impact last season, showcasing his defensive prowess and playmaking abilities. Goodwin averaged impressive stats during his time on the court, and Lakers management is keen on leveraging his talents as they gear up for the upcoming season.
“We are thrilled to welcome Jordan back to the Lakers organization,” said Lakers General Manager Rob Pelinka. “He embodies the grit and determination we value in our players. His skills align perfectly with our team’s vision as we strive for success this season.”

As a two-way player, Goodwin will have the flexibility to split his playing time between the Lakers and the South Bay Lakers, offering him the opportunity to gain valuable experience while also assisting in the team’s efforts in the NBA.
