The Los Angeles Lakers will waive DeAndre Jordan to sign DJ Augustin.


The Lakers wanted to add a veteran point guard with shooting ability to back up Russell Westbrook.

then imagine that vet min guy is DJ bloody Augustin. Talk about slumming it.

Slow night at the bar, no luck so far and it's the last call for drinks. With drunk and desperate eyes, look at what we see....DJ Augustin the savior.
