Our second team and back-ups would be a decent NBA team! We are basically 13 players deep!

    Quinn Cook

    Montrezl Harrell
    Alex Caruso

    Wesley Matthews

    LeBron James

If Alfonzo McKinnie, Devontae Cacok or Kostas Antetokounmpo can provide anything, at all, a repeat and #18 are highly possible (barring the unforeseen).
      GO LAKERS!


what?

With their depth, Lakers don't need ANYTHING out of Alfonzo McKinnie, Devontae Cacok or Kostas Antetokounmpo to repeat (barring any unforeseen injuries to the starters).

Not saying we need them but their development is still important in the grand scheme of things.

    Preseason Postgame Notes: Lakers 131, Clippers 106


Quote:
Lakers filled it up on the offensive end, led by Talen Horton-Tucker, to win their second game of the preseason over the Clippers, 131-106.

A new starting line-up with Talen Horton-Tucker, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Kyle Kuzma, Markieff Morris, and Marc Gasol.
Lakers kept a short bench playing 8 after only playing 9 players in Game 1. THT led with 41 minutes of action.

Talen Horton-Tucker was the story on the offensive end with 33 points on 11/17 shooting and 4/5 from 3 point land. 5 other Lakers scored in double digits, Kuzma (25), Harrell (19), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (16), Quinn Cook (14), and Markieff Morris (11).
Ball movement was a key part of the game, led by Cook with 7 assists and some nifty passes from Marc Gasol (5 assists) and a team total of 28 assists on 46 made field goals.

I bet this warrants Vogel playing THT early in the season and seeing if this output can be continuous.

“We have a very deep team. No minutes are guaranteed,” Vogel said. “He’s going to keep playing at a high level, and that should push everybody else to stay playing at a high level. It does give us that luxury of having him carry the load some for some of our guys who played deep in the championship run last year and had a short offseason.”


I´m still skeptical that he has cracked the rotation
