    I'm seeing excellent ambidextrous soft touch around the basket. Julius could learn a lot from this guy.

    Looks like he's got good form on his free throws, could probably develop a decent mid range game too.

    I'm ecstatic about Ingram, but that's been expected since the lottery. I had no idea who we would get with this pick, but I'm excited so far. Worst case, he's a rich man's Sacre. But I think he can actually develop into a very solid roleplayer or even a starting C in this league.

    Yeah watch the Draft Express Strengths video on him.

    Very Marc Gasol esque style to his game, with a bit more mobility. Seems like an intelligent player who plays good team basketball, has good fundamentals for a big man, works excellent in the pick and roll, can hit free throws, and has tools to be a good defensive presence.

    As for the question about lobs, he's not high fly act, but his massive reach, soft hands, and pick and roll IQ makes him a great target as a finisher and ball mover in the pick and roll.

    Excellent work Lakers scouting.

    Zubac is gonna be a quote and meme machine, love the kids's attitude. If we can get anything close to a Marc Gasol type potential we picked up ourselves a steal here. Great job by lakers management.

    So we're gonna trade him in the future for a Hall of Fame PF that will instantly catapult us into championship contention?

    What a feel good pick and friendly kid. Loves the Lakers. Speaks English since 4th grade. Just picked up our 2nd Marc Gasol. Are you freaking kidding me, Mitch and FO???

    Really like this pick, I wanted a 7 footer project to replace Sacre, and if this is what this is, then I love the pick.

    I already love this guy. I don't think he could have said anything better in his interview.
