Mike not only walks us through his views on some of the players most frequently mocked to the Lakers at 25. Players like centers Tarris Reed Jr., Henri Veesaar and Zuby Ejiofor, and then another higher upside, higher risk player in Jayden Quaintance. But what about wings like Joshua Jefferson, a wing very high on Garcia's wish list? But more than that, how should the Lakers approach this draft? What are the qualities they should look at to figure out who has the best chance of developing into a quality NBA player, after missing big on their last two first rounders (Jalen Hood-Schifino, Dalton Knecht)? And do they even have the infrastructure in place to have a solid pre-draft process? Who is running the show, and what's missing from the architecture? Does it put them at a disadvantage? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky, with guest Mike Garcia! SEGMENT 1: What makes a good Draft process? Are the Lakers ready? SEGMENT 2: What went wrong in the last two Drafts? Who should the Lakers target this year? SEGMENT 3: More names to watch. Photo credit: Jeff Curry-Imagn Images Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
