With Shabazz, the 10 man rotation is super solid.

Lonzo
KCP
Ingram
Randle
Lopez

2nd unit/ deep bench

Clarkson/Ennis
Hart/
Shabazz/ Brewer
Kuzma/ deng
Nance/ Zubac/ Thomas

With the Shabazz signing we would have a lot of guys who can end up scoring digit points and they would help the starters get some extra rest.

D is the last letter in his last name. So far, D hasn't been that important to him.

Think of him as another Alec Burkes, even if his D isn't his strong suit, he would help us stay afloat during games with his offense.

But he knows..a guy

"Let's just say, quoting Breaking Bad's Saul Goodman "I know a guy, who knows a guy."

Shabazz is also back to the agency that Pelinka used to handle. Rob used to handle him before he got the Lakers' gig if I'm right and switched to LeBron's pal before and they parted ways. Now, he's back."

Ygritte found out precisely what he knew

Shabazz Stats

ESPN Real Plus Minus ranks Shabazz as #69 of 70 small forwards on defense and #64 of 70 overall. Hopefully, the Lakers signed him for the minimum.

That's so freaking hilarious.
I hope it was because he was nervous and not him being a knuckle head.

Yeah not good but he's young and put up pretty nice traditional stats.

According to Steve Kyler there is increased speculation that Shabazz Muhammad will join the Lakers on a 1 year deal http://www.basketballinsiders.com/nba-am-it-is-decision-time-for-a-number-of-situations/ Courtesy of Pio2u.

To be fair it did look like we were passing on him until he convinced the Lakers that he was the guy during his 2nd workout.

I heard Magic talk about this, and while he was unimpressed with Lonzo's first workout (all this speculation was before any workouts, IIRC) he made it clear Lonzo was their guy all along.

That's what I was trying to find out, to answer, yeah if we get Shabazz then the D-Wade talk is probably over, you can realistically carry enough players, this isn't the NFL.

Have faith it's not going to cost us a lot to move Deng.
