And after sending some cash to James Dolan's New York Knicks to bump up one spot in the first round, the Lakers selected 6'5\", 21-year old guard Cameron Carr out of Baylor with their pick. Broadly, the expectation was that LA would select a big, or failing that, a more prototypical wing player, given some of the positional needs. But clearly the Lakers felt that Carr was the best player for the long term. And there is plenty of appeal to the skill set. Carr is seen as an elite athlete and a top level shooter, particularly off the catch. His open court skills are excellent, and from the guard position could be an excellent lob threat. And with a wingspan over seven feet, Carr has the body to be an interesting tool defensively, even if he's not considered a particularly good defender yet. (And even if he was better at it at Baylor, he's quite skinny at 185 lbs. So the D will need to get better, as will his strength. But the Lakers got a player that most didn't expect to be available at 24. The skill set makes a lot of sense on a Luka Doncic-led team. Nobody knows whether he'll be good or not, or if other players would have been better. Time will tell. But at the least, the Lakers got a player a lot of experts like, who has a skill set of genuine value. We'll see if they make any more moves to get into Wednesday's second round -- that's been the pattern of late -- but it's hard to find too much fault in their work on Tuesday.
