Best Laker Bench Warmer of all time 

Post#1 » by TarktheShark » Fri Sep 7, 2012 4:37 am

Bench Warmers have a place on every NBA team..

Synergy should never be over looked. Throughout the years the Lakers have had plenty of guys who had a role as a bench warmer. It takes a true team player to embrace it, and thrive in any situation...


Who in your opinion do you think has been the Laker's best bench warmer... Perhaps we can generate a list, and I can create a detailed top 10 countdown..

Here is 3 that come to my head


Ronny Turiaf
Mark Madsen
Adam Morrison

If 8-15 minutes a game qualifies as a bench warmer - that's 3 seasons of Pat Riley's tenure as a Laker player.
