Great draft this year by the lakers. Hopefully they can grab one more pick and grab Patrick young, but if not I am still very happy with this draft!

He's actually the only PG we have.

Instant starter!

you beat me to it. you usually get one or two. but its a ton of them. and they are all pretty darn good. maybe its because everyone is taught ball handling no matter how tall they are . so no more making the 6'5 guy in high school a bigman because he's one of the tallest players on your high school team. and the idea of a COMBO guard has turned into what the nba is all about now. so makes since i guess. still weird looking at all these tall guys at the g position.

Doesn't matter, looks like a scorer to me. Like a bigger Monta Ellis, who was also a second round nugget.

He looks so bad in that DX Scouting vid, it's almost comical. A PG who has as one of his weaknesses, "Point Guard Skills" (along with perimeter shooting and on ball defense lol).

Why does DX have him so high at 31, and other places have him much higher too? Must be something we are missing.

Had no idea who this was. Watched his DX Vid. Does anybody else think he reminds of a young tony parker? I'm serious here.

The idea that videos aren't the best way to view players. I watched a few Mizzou games, I remember being impressed that he was good at the rim.

What'd you have to give up to acquire Clarkson? Kupchak: "Cash."

Serena Winters ‏@SerenaWinters 35s

Kupchak on Clarkson, says he’s a “ball-handling guard” Lakers gave up cash only to get him.
