He’s like fuck this I’m outta here
Hope he finds his next opportunity asap, but at least it looks like Lakers letting JJ put his vision in place for player development.
Damn. He was the SL coach. I guess they were not happy with his performance or didn’t fit JJs vision.
He was not good in Summer League
He looked bad in SL, and JJ prob wants to clean house to set up all his guys.
Dane “Dwayne” Johnson
I’ve never seen a 3rd string unit play so uninspired and lazy. That game last season where Bron and AD had to come back to close it out after the garbage time unit blew like 10+ points in 24 seconds or so was indicative of how unserious our G-League program was.
He was dogshit good riddance
