The Los Angeles Lakers announced that they have officially re-signed restricted free agent Talen Horton-Tucker. While the terms were not released, it is reportedly a three-year contract worth $32 million.
In a summer in which the Lakers let almost all of their free agents walk, retaining Horton-Tucker was a priority all along due to his youth and upside.
The former second-round pick of the Lakers has spent two seasons with the team and while his minutes have been few and far in between, he is still just 20 years of age and has continued to improve throughout the course of his career.
