Can confirm the Lakers are working towards a 10-day deal with Sterling Brown. Team is currently without wings Lonnie Walker IV and Austin Reaves, and Brown is familiar with Ham from their time together in MilwaukeeDan Woike |

Hopefully fans here won’t overrate him and then trash him if things don’t work out. I have expectations that he will get a few minutes off the bench.

They’re working out Cousins for that. Brown is to help cover the loss of Reaves and Walker.

You do realize that both Reaves and Walker are, in fact, wings, right? Traditionally, the SG and SF positions are referred to as "wings". Reaves is a natural 2 guard. While Lonnie is a natural combo guard(1&2). Wings. Swingmen are players who can naturally play BOTH those positions. That would include players like Troy, Reaves, and JTA.

Rob gave out one 2-year deal in free agency this summer and it went to Damian Jones (player option too   ).

Austin Reaves keeps his game tight, like Kobe Bryant on game night. |

I spent the last 20 minutes watching highlight tape. He hasn't missed a shot yet.

THANK YOU, SONIC!!
It gets really tiresome. Indeed all of them are wings. All the tall wings are all stars or superstars. We had one of the best defensive wings in KCP and when he was in here, we crapped all over him because he can't handle PG. Kuzma and Oubre ARE NOT WINGS! They are tweeny Forwards. |

That is usually par for the course with 10-day contracts

Actually, it’s starting to make me question my own evaluation skills because whenever we ran Damien Jones on 10 day contract last year, I thought this guy was an all-star that nobody knew about what in the heck happened to this player so disappointed |
