The Los Angeles Lakers are heading into a rebuilding season with a roster stocked with young talent. The future of the franchise looks bright coming off of a franchise-worst 17-win season, with players like D’Angelo Russell, Larry Nance Jr., Ivica Zubac, and Brandon Ingram all show flashes of brilliance during July’s Las Vegas Summer League.
However, another player managed to make an impact: Zach Auguste, the undrafted power forward/center out of Notre Dame. Summer League is renowned for games played at a break-neck pace, due in part to the fact that the majority of the players involved don’t have guaranteed contracts and are looking to make their mark.
