Not long after their season came to an end, the Los Angeles Lakers entered into their final preparation for the 2018 NBA Draft. The team shared photos on social media of general manager Rob Pelinka and director of scouting Jesse Buss traveling abroad to get a look at prospects.
More recently, the Lakers have held three workouts at their UCLA Health Training Center. The first, which included Louisville’s Deng Adel, was not open to media. However, portions of the last two sessions this week were.
The two groups of six draft prospects have featured Nevada twins Caleb and Cody Martin, Arizona’s Allonzo Trier and USC’s Chimezie Metu, among others.
