Marcus Smart is officially a Laker, and he's already locked in on chasing a championship. In his introductory press conference and a follow-up interview with ESPN LA, the former Defensive Player of the Year spoke candidly about what drew him to Los Angeles and what he hopes to bring to the team.

The Los Angeles Lakers officially signed veteran point guard Marcus Smart on Tuesday, three days after it was reported he agreed to a contract buyout with the Washington Wizards.
