Sucks to be Greece, Spain and Canada.

26 and 11 for Kel’el Ware, he looked pretty good. :cry:

Not sure we were in a position to move up into the late lottery to draft him before Miami did at #15. I still believe his st*tty motor will be his downfall and limit his ceiling to a journeyman back up C.

Reed, Metu and Robinson are the only FA centers I would be interested in adding.

I was hoping for him as our bench big but can't blame him for going where he probably feels like he'll have a good chance at a bigger role.

I realize it's not an NBA skill...but would've never thought Curry, Hali, and LeBron would struggle with something most of us can do.

I like Highsmith, he would’ve been nice in Milwaukee. We need capable bodies to throw at all these opposing forwards that are stacking up at the top of the East. The J’s, George, Butler, Paolo..

The reports of Horst reaching out to quality veterans like Batum and Theis reassures me that he's been diligent in his attempts to improve the roster. Hopefully he's already reached out to guys like Gary Trent Jr, Tyus jones, Paul Reed and Precious Achiuwa as any would be a plus if they are willing to accept a vet min deal or the TPMLE (if we can dump Connaughton for the 2031 2nd).

As predicted, Dan Hurley got paid significantly less by UConn then he was offered by the Lakers. It was never about money.

Being the Lakers coach when you have title expectations but clearly don’t have title talent is probably the most miserable coaching job in the league lol. That fanbase **** sucks and the organization has no issues throwing one coach under the bus after another. Totally get his decision.

Ajay Mitchell looking nice in SL so far.

I don't give much of a crap about summer league, especially other teams. But Edey right now matched up against Kessler makes this one of the most interesting summer league games ever. Edey's more than holding his own. Size still a factor.

Had to double check to see if it was the same Kessler. What is he doing playing in the SL?

Damn Edey! That tip in at the buzzer was nice.
