LOL. Gerald trades with another mock drafter to get Lakers pick at 28. He was tantalized by SG Jahmius Ramsey but goes for 18-year old French PG Theo Maledone.
But the next two picks might have been better. Gonzaga stretch five Killian Tillie, 45% 3-point shooter, went 29 and Arizona sharpshooting PG Nico Mannion went 30.
Maledone is a great prospect but at 18, he’s too young to help Lakers whereas Tillie and Mannion are older and both proven elite shooters, which is what the Lakers always need.
But fun show by Gerald and Rafael.
lol. LT and his eternal quest for the perfect stretch team.
Tom, Mannion’s stock has dropped like a rock in a pond after a disappointing stay in Arizona, and Tillie has had A LOT of injuries to his knees and feet already and that has hurt his athleticism and may not be able to stay on the floor. Maledone could end up being a dynamic quick playmaker. Sure he may not help you now but if you are asking for the 28th pick in this draft like 2017 to come and save the day next season that’s asking a bit much.
LOL. I was mostly just giving you a hard time for fun, Gerald. I’m almost 100% that the Lakers will end up trading their pick along with Green. Good podcast by you and Rafael though.
