The South Bay Lakers are certainly the most popular G League team right now. When he isn’t with the Los Angeles Lakers, rookie guard Bronny James is playing with South Bay.
Dropping a career-high 30 points in his first G League road game on Thursday night, James turned in by far his best performance as a professional. The son of LeBron James, the rookie guard will always have the biggest spotlight, but there are other talented players on his G League team. Adding another talented guard on Friday, the South Bay Lakers announced the signing of a six-year NBA veteran.
Per the South Bay Lakers, the team has signed Devonte’ Graham. The six-year NBA veteran has spent time with the Charlotte Hornets, New Orleans Pelicans, and San Antonio Spurs. In 336 NBA games (171 starts), Graham has averaged 11.1 points in 24.9 minutes per contest.
Via South Bay Lakers: “OFFICIAL: The South Bay Lakers have signed guard Devonte’ Graham.”
A second round pick of the Atlanta Hawks in 2018, Graham is now 29 years old. The 6-foot-1 guard’s last contact was an Exhibit 10 deal with the Portland Trail Blazers, but he never appeared in an NBA game for them. Now getting in opportunity in the Lakers organization, Graham should get some extended run in the G League.
Graham spent 23 games with the Spurs last season, but received just 13.6 minutes per game. While he has never been efficient (career 37.1% shooting), Graham has flashed real scoring ability at times, which the Lakers will hope to refine in the G League.
