Yeah hopefully its Big Ike. At worst he's a big man that can defend and we can mould

Poor Man's Dwight if you will.

Thomas Bryant. Can shoot, 7 feet 6 wingspan. Can't rebound.

It is a good pick to be fair. 6'10, 7'6 wingspan can shoot, run the floor and defend and seems to be a hard worker.

He offers something different from what we have now.

in terms of a fit but its better than Big Ike.

Also Bryant is not even 20 yet either (i know Big Ike is still 18 but still )

Don't like it. I liked Ike. Either way highly doubt this guy sees the floor for the Lakers. Zubac gets all the backup mins no matter what

Almost 20 years old sophomore center. Was a mid to low first rounder that has fallen. He can shoot the 3 and can help defend but will need a few years of seasoning. Not a bad pickup at #42.

Now, to buy one more second rounder.

This is clearly why he is requesting others to dunk on Ball as opposed to him making his own noise.
