Closed that gap quick. Has potential with that length and athleticism.

His ability to block 3pt shots like this fairly regularly is what stood out a ton to me on tape. I imagine that looking at his height, you don’t figure for him to have a chance when going up for a shot. His arm length is ridiculous and he seems to close gaps quickly which catches a lot of people off guard.

That was seriously impressive lol

This is why I have some hope that he might develop into an on ball defender. The athleticism and length is crazy.

He needed to follow that with a chase down block to be truly amazing, but impressive nonetheless. Cam Carr looks to be niiiice

That’s Jon Elmore, a G-League legend for you.

I don’t know what happened to his blonde hair, though.

Maybe in future years yeah. For this season He likely won’t spend much time at all actually playing with Luka. If he even gets real (ie. non garbage time) minutes, He’ll be in the Austin & Sexton lead bench groups, not the Luka groups.

Idk that statline is a disappointing to me considering the role that the Lakers are hoping he can fill.

Only 2 rebounds and 1 assist is not what the Lakers need from him as a bench role player. He might be falling into the Caruso trap where he thinks he needs to prove he can be a bucket getting when the Lakers need a solid role player.

Especially when you consider that one of his big weaknesses is his defense… hopefully he improves as the summer league goes on and this is just a one off bad game.
