Here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
-
Jordan Goodwin was waived by the Los Angeles Lakers in July 2025 as part of roster moves to clear space for new additions. This marked the end of his stint with the Lakers after appearing in several regular-season games and a few playoff appearances in the 2024-25 campaign.

Prior to that waiver, Goodwin had signed a two-way contract with the Lakers in February 2025 and subsequently saw a handful of G League and NBA appearances, with a notable stretch contributing for the South Bay Lakers before the deal converted to a standard contract in March. After the season, his status shifted as the Lakers adjusted the backcourt depth. [Source: Lakers sign/waiver timeline and two-way contract details][4][6]

In the 2024-25 season with the Lakers, Goodwin played in 29 regular-season games (four playoff appearances) and posted averages around mid- to high-single digits in points with contributions across rebounds and steals, helping provide depth off the bench during a transition year for the team.
