The Lakers made a really smart move (pun intended). 
Marcus Smart will strengthen their defense and can contribute around 10 points per game on average. With a 2-year $11 million contract, he won't take up much salary cap space either. The fact that Luka specifically wanted him is also important. After signing Ayton, this is another very solid addition. The Lakers put themselves in a position to be real contenders again.
