    I like this dude and his attitude. He's better then JHS, Lewis, Castleton, and Bronny

    Nets waived Hayes.
    Haven't researched deeply why, but hopefully they aren't opening a roster spot to grab Olivari. He's definitely getting a contract, hopefully we are able to retain him with a 2-way

    Lonnie Walker cut by the C Bags. Yikes. I think he's learning Mandarin at this point

    Hip injury.



    Sounds like they'll keep him around and when he rehabs, give him another look depending on how the G-League stint goes.




    Sounds expected if the plan was for him to go to the G-League when he signed the deal. Still sucks. I like him, he's better than a G-League caliber player.

    Didn’t know Lonnie could still go to the G League. I thought you couldn’t after a certain number of years in the league, plus he’s too talented to be there. Unless there’s an injury limiting him, he should be in the NBA somewhere

    Lakers should have cut Castleton and signed Oilvari already. They need to hurry up and do that and not risk Oliveri going to another team.

    The Lakers have signed guard Grayson Murphy. Additionally, the team has waived guard Jordan Goodwin and center Kylor Kelley.
    Why so many Guards?

    Looks like we'll be getting word on Koloko soon.

    Quincy has potential. I think dropping Castleton instead of Treore to sign him was definitely the right call.

    They must have selective reading or their ignore list is very full. Otherwise our front court depth would've been addressed this summer.

    Rob isn't on LB, but I think he has people who are. I'm glad they responded with a sense of urgency and completed this transaction probably within an hour of me calling for it.

    never understood the castleton hype. he's an unathletic undersized C and hasn't shown any signs of improving his game since last year. waiving him was the right move
