The Los Angeles Lakers have officially played their last game of the 2015-16
NBA season.
Kobe Bryant ended the season on a high note dropping a season-high 60 points
on the Utah Jazz while leading the team to victory at the Staples Center.
With the 2015-16 campaign behind them, the Lakers organization and its players
will head into the NBA off-season with a lot of questions to be answered. One
of those questions, although not pressing at the moment, is which players will
be on the floor for the Lakers the next time to team suits up in Las Vegas,
Nevada for the NBA Summer League.
Apparently, point guard D’Angelo Russell is looking forward to the prospect
of playing in the Summer League for a second time in July. During Russell’s
exit interview on Thursday, the Ohio State product let it be known that he
expects to play in Summer League and hopes his young teammates join him, via
Lakers Nation reporter Serena Winters:
D’Angelo Russell says that he hopes he plays Summer League this summer,
hopes the rest of the young core does too, to build chemistry.
The NBA Summer League will get underway in Las Vegas on July 8 with teams
playing up to the 18th. Although Russell is looking forward to playing,
Julius Randle and Jordan Clarkson may have other ideas after having already
played in the Summer League twice thus far.
Although Clarkson and Randle’s status for Summer League is uncertain at this
point, Larry Nance Jr. also wants to be on the floor come July, via Winters:
Larry Nance Jr. says he absolutely thinks he’ll play in NBA Summer League.
Russell and Nance will likely be joined by Anthony Brown as well as the rookie
the team may acquire if able to keep their lottery pick. The Lakers’ fate will
be determined on May 17 in the NBA Draft Lottery with the NBA Draft following
on June 23.
簡短翻譯：
Serena Winters在twitter說Dlo想要打夏季聯賽，在今年夏天透過夏季聯賽，建立球隊的
核心以及球隊的化學反應。
而因為JC跟Randle已經參加兩次夏季聯賽，所以不確定是否會再參加，而Nance則說他絕對
會在夏季聯賽出賽，雖然JC跟Randle可能不參加夏季聯賽，但是還有AB可以加入，以及新
秀球員一起加入。
心得：希望四少好好努力加油訓練吧！倒是希望KB可以教教Dlo低位的腳步。
剩下就看抽籤之後的順位，決定新秀要選誰了！
