Jordan Hill
Would you believe me if I told you Hill has played just 36 games with the Lakers? While it seems like he’s had more time in the purple and gold, he has shown what he’s capable of in that short time. The problem is, he’s played in very few games. It took him a while to break into Mike Brown’s rotation, then was injured last season. If he can remain healthy, he’ll be one of the Lakers featured big men, but that seems to be a big if.
Hill already signed one new contract with the Lakers, but will he re-up again? I think he’ll appreciate the additional playing time and shine bright this year. He’ll make a Chris Anderson-like impact on the Lakers, which is something they desperately need. The Lakers will look to resign him if the price is right.
VERDICT: Jordan Hill will be a Laker in 2014-15.
