We are filled at the 3 spot.
Ingram/Deng/Brown and essentially MWP.
How are the minutes gonna play out? |

2.0 breaking the news!
Hopefully just for camp. I would say assistant coach, but I don't think he wants to be that accountable - he even said it last year, he's not sure if he wants to commit to that. |

Earlier this summer he said he could have averaged 15-20 points. He still wants to play. |

Hopefully its just a camp body, taking up valuable roster spaces for another year of "mentoring" is kinda old. |

I'm guessing this means Auguste has no chance of making the team, unless the Lakers open up a roster spot via trade or cut. |

I'll take as much Metta as they're willing to give us. |

I'm gonna assume/hope that he is a training camp body. I know that a lot of the younger players took a lot defensive advice from him last year, but I cant imagine he still has anything left in the tank for another season. Atleast, I hope he doesn't |

If he plays anywhere solid, he is way better then Brown or Young.

I hope he isn't on the final roster, that would be a waste of a roster spot. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

Maybe the Lakers saw him play this summer and were Impressed? |

There's not much in this news today. But if he or Travis Wear or another fringe talent were to be able to sign another Laker contract to stick around after camp, well, it would be a shot over my bow alright. Today, I feel no need to let Metta's status be a signal need to readjust my personal expectations (down another couple clicks for this roster.) If he's on board after another month, well, we'll see. |

I dunno... are we still under the cap and signing Metta gets us out of a penalty area?
Otherwise, hopefully he's there to provide more mentoring services for Julius and maybe Ingram or... maybe just light a fire under Anthony Brown... during camp only, not during the season or he becomes some kind of "Adjunct" coach for us... |
