Lakers Show Potential In Initial Nba Summer League Games

The Los Angeles Lakers have had a fantastic Summer League, going unbeaten in three games. Now they head into the Las Vegas Summer League Tournament, where they will meet up with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Thus far, D’Angelo Russell has led the way for the Lakers, averaging over 22 points per game will providing leadership both on and off the court. Larry Nance Jr. has also been a standout, with his hustle, high-flying dunks, and surprising outside shooting giving the team a boost.

Against Cleveland, the Lakers will need an entire team effort. Anthony Brown will need to lock down Jordan McRae, and Ivica Zubac will likely be tested at the rim by Kay Felder, who is sure to get into the paint. Improved efficiency from Brandon Ingram would also be a welcome development after two consecutive games of poor shooting.

Can the Lakers get another win and move on in the Summer League tournament? Check out the highlights below:
