The Lakers have gone to their past in hopes that it will help solidify their immediate future in the backcourt.

Point guard Derek Fisher, who played an integral role on the Lakers' three-peat team earlier this decade, has agreed in principle to a three-year contract, the Los Angeles Times reports. The deal is worth roughly $14 million.

This is a happy day! Glad DFish is going to be back in a Laker uniform: was disappointed he left, though I certainly understand the economics of it at the time: extending him at the $$$ the Warriors offered didn't make sense at the time.
Hopefully, his daughter can get the care she needs at UCLA or City of Hope or wherever she's treated, and Fish can once again help the Lakers do whatever it takes to win.
Welcome home, Derek!
