The Lakers closed out SPL play with a couple of big losses, Friday and Saturday, cementing a 2-4 overall record.
The Lakers, with the deepest (in terms of number of players) rosters
in the SPL, were anchored by the one and only Coby Karl, who led the
team with 13.8 PPG. Rookie, Joe Crawford came in a close second,
posting 11.3 PPG.
On the boards, the hyphen crew held it down. UCLA alum, Lorenzo
Mata-Real pulled down 6.8 RPG, and Terp turned Euro guy, Nik
Caner-Medley averaged 5.0 RPG in addition to his 8.8 PPG. I’ve seen a
few rumors of Caner-Medley preseason roster talk, but none have been
confirmed.
I'm a realistic observer of the vast world that surrounds the Los Angeles Lakers. You can thank Nick Van Exel, Eddie Jones, Elden Campbell, Cedric Ceballos, and Vlade Divac for making that possible. The greatest person of all time is Francis Dayle "Chick" Hearn. There's no getting around that. Me? I'm eighteen years old and working my way to a journalism degree.
