For your morning reading pleasure, let’s dive into the news surrounding the Los Angeles Lakers.
Let’s dig in and find out more about international superstar, Emmanuel Mudiay:
“1. Physical Tools
Mudiay has a NBA body at 19 years old. At 6’5 200 lbs he has the gifts to compete with NBA PG today. He is a very good athlete with an extremely quick first step which allows him to play above the rim, like many of the other PG we love today, i.e. Russell Westbrook and Derrick Rose. He is able to use his size to finish through contact and finish plays with either hand. Due to his size and athletic ability the sk is the limit for the 19-year-old.
As a 6’5 PG he is comfortable using his size to his advantage, by posting up and finishing. He also uses his athleticism to out-jump taller opponents for rebounds.
- Pick and roll capability
He utilizes the pick and roll to his advantage and he understands how to change speeds and direction to get to the basket. He is a very willing and able passer who makes the right pass.”

Bleacher Report writes about the Lakers desire to create a Big team:
“When the Los Angeles Lakers general manager wants to stick to his conservative nature, protecting his information and keeping his plans private, he’ll fill space with circuitous phrases that travel roundabout paths to, well, dead ends.
“Having said that, you can argue that maybe…”
“That could be a factor…”
“I understand why people would think that. But to say I’m thinking that, I’m not sure…”
Except…some stuff is obvious.”
