That website has all the pick rights for every team for the next few years. Just scroll down to the Lakers. Short answer is, they keep it in 2017 if Philly gets it this year

It is protected.

• 2016 — Owe first-rounder (top-three protected through 2017, unprotected in 2018) to Philadelphia 76ers (Steve Nash, Brandon Knight).
• 2018 — Owe first-rounder (top-five protected, unprotected in 2019) to Orlando Magic (Dwight Howard). If a first-rounder not sent to Philadelphia by 2017, pick to Orlando converts to 2017 and 2018 second-rounders.
• 2019 — Owe second-rounder to Indiana Pacers (Roy Hibbert).

Whew!! Glad we have that figured out.
