Lakers Pre-Draft Podcast: Mitch Kupchak

[MagicMamba88]

Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak joined us on Wednesday afternoon to discuss the team’s plans heading into Thursday’s NBA Draft, during which the Lakers are slotted to pick at No.’s 43 (from Memphis) and 58 in Round 2.

Kupchak explained that it’s difficult for a team like the Lakers to bring in a starter or even a role player with a pick as low as No. 43, but the team has certainly done its due diligence and hopes for a stroke of luck in terms of a coveted player still being available.

Mitch is not going to tip his hand. Yes he has 2 picks. But they are so late that they are almost useless. If we can sell them and give Dr.Buss a few extra millions. I think he would be happy. I would like to package them and move up. But that seems a long shot.

we could package the two picks plus a farmar or brown (sign and trade) for a better pick if the right player is available.


Who did the Lakers even work out?
