I don't think so with the current team.
There will be a great improvement Clippers will do something Houston OKC with Westbrook and Melo San Antonio Golden State Portland Denver Utah New Orleans
There are a lot of teams to leap frog this all depends on the free agent signings. but there are things we need to see a complete improvement in Lonzo Ball we have to see if he makes that stride. Ingram will be superstar level.
But I see us as a right out of the playoffs team which is a lot better then where we are this season.

Unless a miracle happens I say no. They could end up getting a few superstars, but they still need a solid bench. My personal opinion is they need about 3 more years.

Re: Lakers next year
hypothetically.
If the lineup next season is
C Cousins
P.F Kuzma
S.F George
S.G Ingram
P.G Ball
Then yes, that side is balanced as hell and probably gets us to around 5th or 6th seed in its first year. Without Cousins, i still think George himself with a young improving core gets us to the 8th.
