Love the two concluding sentences:

“Los Angeles surely isn’t heading to the postseason anytime soon; FiveThirtyEight gives the Lakers a 12 percent likelihood of reaching the playoffs. But the team’s late-round selection of Kuzma provides reason for optimism, even if Ball, the team’s lottery pick, isn’t panning out.”

Go Utes!

By the way the shoplifters are back from their confinement in the “Hangzhou Hilton” which is like the “Hanoi Hilton” with 5 more stars.

I am counting on the MUSS to have some appropriate signage for their visit in the JMHC this season.

How is Lonzo not panning out?  Laker fans have pretty unrealistic expectations.

Did you read the article? There are some pretty good points in there.

I don’t follow NBA enough I remember someone posting his final stats awhile ago thinking it wasn’t that bad. But yeah free throw percentage is inexcusable. He is putting up Dleague numbers.

It sounds as though he could have used a few more years developing in college. The One-and-Done path to the NBA is awful, and is killing the college game.

It is also killing the quality in the NBA.  Teams feel obligated to play their lottery picks even though they should sit more and learn more.
