Power Ranking the Lakers biggest draft needs
By Jacob Rude
First, let me say that I’m a big fan of Jodie Meeks. He gets a bad rap because, more often than not, he was put into a bigger and unfamiliar role. Even then, he averaged a respectable 13.4 points points per 36 minutes. However, he has a team option for next season and may not be with the team next year.
If they want to focus on finding a replacement in the draft, Michael Snaer or B.J. Young could be options. Snaer is the more NBA-ready prospect with solid defense and even better range. Young is likely a better prospect for the future with more potential, standing at 6’3, but having a 6’8 wingspan.
