The Lakers acquired veteran Jose Calderon from the Chicago Bulls, adding a point guard near the end of his career with three-point touch and solid passing skills.
No other current players were involved in the deal, though the Lakers received two future second-round draft picks from the Bulls. The Lakers will trade Chicago the rights to an undetermined player.
Calderon averaged 7.6 points and 4.2 assists in 72 games last season with New York.
