Mr Dunk is going to D up and surprise heads this year.

Hell yeah. That's the player that I want. Hopefully he does not display any attitude and understand he has to earn it as oppose to feel important and entitled. I believe he will be part of rotation 10-15 minutes. |

Yeah, Magic gave him some serious unsolicited praise during that interview.
I think he will be on the roster this year and I am excited to see how he does.

| Is there a reason why David stare off in the distance when he does interviews? |

He offers much more than his salary to the team and we're short on Gs. No brainer.

Nice to know they are putting a premium on perimeter defense this time. Nwaba's goal should be to make one of the all-defensive teams in the distant future. |

He has very good body control and plays strong. Doesn't have great quickness but seems to have a good IQ. It's a no-brainer to have this guy around, even if he's nothing more than an end-of-bench fill-in.
I also feel that way about T-Rob, but he's also up against a glut of big men on the roster. So we'll see. |

Very happy for Nwaba. Keep bringing the intensity on D and the glass, and work on that corner 3 and we got ourselves a solid role player. Keep it up David!

| Never thought I'd get to see a player from my alma mater play on the Lakers. Way to go young man, Cal Poly proud. |

| Great news, David plays with heart and hustle, just the type of player this team need's. At 1.5 million, I would say he's a bargain for what he can do on the floor. |
