Zubac was my pick.

Good grief that happens once a decade this far down the draft.

Can't blame asleep at the Switch Mitch if he is a bust LOL.


Ha, ha. Somewhere around the late lottery, I pulled up some of his scouting info on my computer and left it up all the way to our pick. Only player I did that with, must have been good luck because we certainly got a little lucky...probably because he wants to come over now and there were a lot of stash picks. Then the green room guys dropping. Crazy.

Not a draft and stash then.

Best case - 15th man on team
Worst case - dfenders


I'd imagine he spends most of his time in the D-League as a rookie. Sign him to a two year, minimum salary deal and let him get those minutes in the D-League.


Or Russell/Ingram could make him look like a god in the SL and we bring him on the roster. Honestly, he looks so much better than Hibbert and Sacre.

Zubac could not be more excited - he’s been a HUGE Lakers fan for his entire life, told me he cried like a baby when Kobe scored 60.




Awesome! I like this guy already.

I'll probably be mistyping his name as "Zubat" at times though

Looks like he's a Bogut type of player.


Just watched his DX video, and that's the first impression I came away with. Seems to definitely fit the Bogut mold.
yeah. I'm optimistic about Zubac. He has the size to fill in the Bogut role. He probably needs to slim down a bit. He looked a little bit too heavy in the DX vids.


Yeah, it will be interesting to see what his body will look like after year-round NBA conditioning. Even at his current weight, he already seems more mobile than Marc Gasol.

Gotta have some kind of response for when teams go big on us.


Now let's spend some money on free agents!

Whatever happens, no moment will top him being drafted to the Lakers. Kid is a diehard Laker fan. He probably watched the Lakers 2 peat @ 4 AM.

Eh. Had our chance to get Khalil Felder. No one realizes how nice he is. Mark my words, Felder is going to be that 2nd round steal years from now for whoever gets him. He can flat out hoop.


I felt the same way about Isaiah Thomas in 2011 and was screaming at my TV all FOUR times the Lakers passed on him.
