Who's on the Roster now?

Hart (G)

Caruso (G)

Kuzma (F)

Zubac (C)

Ingram (F)

Nance (F)

Clarkson (G)

Lonzo (G)

Randle (F)

Lopez (C)

Deng (F)

Brewer (F/G)

KCP (G)

So thats about 5 Guards

About 5 Forwards

1 G/F hybrid

2 centers

Do we really need another PG? Isn't Tyler Ennis on the team? And arent they going to try and get Nwaba back?

After that i dont know.. I like Bryant and Ware.
Nwaba signed with bulls

We weren't worried about that with D'Angelo, so why worry about it with Drizzy Ball?:yeshrug:


Come on board breh....Ball is life:lawd:
D'Angelo didn't load the shot from his hip and it was a one motion set shot.

I'm on board. I've always liked Ball as a prospect, but I'm worried about his shot. He's a tremendous talent though. A Kidd/Penny mix imo.

The Truth
I'm worried that he's shooting 4 feet behind the line because he needs space to get off the shot. Some of his misses are UGLY because he's rushing his shot/footing.
He does need time/space but he hasn't even BEGUN to work with the Lakers training staff on his game or the offense that might be tweaked to get him open shots.

A lot of shyt needs to be worked on with his shot but that just takes time. Imo, its conditioning and him setting up. A lot of his shots be spot on just goes in/out or off front rim

This is just watching guys naturally play and showcase a lot of draft players natural skills/talent while also letting other players show their skills to hopefully get on a team. Basically the D-league preseason with no real plays or strategies being implemented

Caruso doesn't count, two way contract guys will mostly play in G league. You can now have 17 on the rosters with 2 of them being on two way contracts

Regardless, everything else is a shot in the dark. Until we know who's available, who's contracts we're getting rid of, who we sending to the G-League, etc., then we're just hoping and wishing like those guys on other Lakers forums. I rather not speculate.

Bradley and Ware should be on the team tho...

Rondo is with New Orleans so who else is available

y'all hear about the Deng/ randle for melo rumor floating around... supposedly dude on Reddit was at summer league and he overheard coaches talking bout it.
...

Wade obviously caught wind... and supposedly bulls would agree to a clakrson + trash deal for him..

link?

Why would Knicks want Randle, I think they would want Clarkson more since they are looking to fill that PG position. And I dont think Magic does it since they are not looking for long deals
