got a DNP last night, was hoping he would get an opportunity this year, he might be better off getting out of L.A.

Bronny played!

His lack of shooting and limited defensive foot speed will be hard to overcome. I'm afraid he may have a short NBA career.

The guy playing ahead of him looks no good at all.

 

[Chicago-bound Hoosier]

will spend most of the year in G league. His future in LA was doomed the day the "King" held the franchise for ransom with his contract opt out. Now every night can be father/son night at the Forum. JHS is a 5th wheel now and needs a new home stat.

Basketball is a business. Some are run wisely and some aren't. Pretty easy to figure out where the Lakers stand when they bring in the King of Flops little boy.

Or change his last name to James.

Unfortunately, any available minutes that Hood Schifino would have gotten will now go to the Owner / Head Coaches son.

Assuming JHS is healthy he should get a real opportunity. Unfortunately, he's on a team run by a player and not a coach or GM. That player wants his son to play. As a long time Lakers fan it's tough to watch. Hoping LJ retires or moves on to another super team so the org can get back to trying to win titles.

Can’t shoot, can’t play.

Can’t shoot, can’t play.

Nepotism at its finest!

He needs out of LA to have a chance

D'Angelo Russell? He seems pretty highly regarded... and plays well and can shoot. I think he'd start for over half the teams in the league.

Probably talking about their 2nd unit guard, Russel is a solid NBA starter.

I should have worded it better. I meant the backup to Russell.

IMO, Calipari as much as I can't stand him is right that a player such JHS should be able to return to college ball. They getting paid now in college. There has to be some way to calculate how much eligibility he has left based on playing time.

There's three backups to DR before you get to JHS. He's currently low man on the PG totem pole.

Foreign players have done it

Yes. I figured that is what you meant.

Max Christie is one of those guys and he is pretty underwhelming. Then Gabe Vincent and Bronny get minutes in front of JHS.

As another poster noted, JHS is low man right now. Not good to be behind Bronny who arguably should not be in the league.

Having said that, JHS has not been terribly impressive up to this point. Hope he can earn some quality time as he ramps up in the NBA.
