One of the more interesting rumors to pop up for the Los Angeles Lakers recently was one that they had made a promise to center Mitchell Robinson with their 25th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
It popped up during the NBA Draft Combine last week and was pretty unexpected considering the Lakers’ recent history. The team has done very well in drafting recently, and making a promise at such an early stage seemed unlike them.
Of course, rumors are just that. And this one should probably be taken with a grain of salt.
