Solid GT!

Can't wait to see DeAngelo and Ingram in action together.

Go Lakers!!!

Can't wait for summer league though, gonna be great seeing chemistry develop between the guys.

Really hoping Zubacca plays at least 2 games

Who voted Anthony Brown

Me. Depending on the bond built between Dlo and Brown, DLo might try to feed him to help him shine.

Have there been any updates about Zubac's contract situation?

I think D'Lo will spoon feed Ingram before Brown. He knows what it's like to start off slow as the number 2 pick, and if he can avoid that with Ingram it's going to help everybody involved.

That'd be nice to see, just feel like Russell is gonna try to set the tone early in this 1st game by putting up points. We'll see more playmaking as the tourney goes on

I think there was a tweet that said tentatively Zubac and Ingram will be introduced early next week so that's when it'll be done by hopefully

Maybe. But he also use to go to Browns D-League games to support his buddy. Ingrams on the team for sure, Browns not.

Good point. Hopefully he can feed everyone, including himself. He has as much to prove as anyone in the league next year, IMO.

Most interested to see DLO/Auguste PNR.

If we strike out in free agency, there's a chance our summer league team + Randle and Clarkson is most of our rotation

2 questions ... 1) who is coaching the SL is it Luke or assistants??

2) does league pass run SL Games?

I don't normally watch SL games but don't know if I can go a couple more months with outwatching s B-ball.

We don't know yet. Luke said he will be there in Vegas and heavily involved, but not sure if he'll coach yet. I think League Pass runs them, but I don't know if you have to pay for SL or not

Whiteside vs Davis will have to wait, I guess. I like him against all Cs in the WC. Even Cousins.

I was thinking the same thing, and Clarkson is suppose to play for the summer league team anyway lol

Full Roster released, practice starts on Tuesday. Since Zubac is officially there, expect our rookies' press conference to be on Monday I would assume:

EDIT: PRESS CONFERENCE ON TUESDAY AT 2:30 PM PST
