Obligatory Max Christie highlight reel. :D

Thanks for using the cash to buy a 2nd round pick, Jeanie and Rob!

Christie looks solid with sound fundamentals. He may be in some way suit the current lakers better than Peyton Watsons.

It maybe a good way to develop him if we sign a Danny Green as his mentor and be the veteran leader in the locker room.

Christie's handle needs work. Phil Handy is the right guy for him.

Put him and Reaves in and add some motion offense to the team.

Wonder who else will the lakers sign for the summer league team. Miss out on Keon Ellis, Lewis etc and got Fabian white who looks promising according to season highlight which is always showing the best moments.

Edit: A few of the new signings are sharp shooters. What I hope is they look for overall talent, potential and desire rather than a specific skill the team desperately needed. Most of the time, these players need some time to develop before entering a regular NBA roster. Set aside Christie who is a real pick and may be seen to contribute right away.
