VIDEO: Mitch Kupchak Talks Kobe, NBA Draft, Free Agency

A day after Kobe Bryant’s surgery on his torn rotator cuff, Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak spoke to the media. Kupchak covered a variety of topics, ranging from Bryant’s injury to the NBA trade deadline, to the NBA draft and 2015 NBA free agency.

In our video above, Kupchak says despite the possibility of the Lakers ending up with one of the worst records in the league and therefore having a decent chance to wind up as one of the teams with a top five pick (protected) in the NBA Draft, Lakers head coach Byron Scott and his team are focused on winning games.

Will the Lakers make any moves before the trade deadline? Is there a plan for 2015 NBA free agency? What do the Lakers have to do differently next year to ensure that Kobe isn’t carrying the load? It’s all in our video above.
