Los Angeles Lakers: All-NBA Los Angeles only team
All-NBA LA Second Team:
G Patrick Beverley , G Danny Green, F JaMychal Green, F Kyle Kuzma, C Montrezl Harrell
The competition between the complication of Lakers and Clippers players on this All-NBA LA Second Team is equal.
Kyle Kuzma is coming off an 18 points and 6 rebounds per game campaign in just his second season of his young NBA career. He’ll undoubtedly improve and continue to do so, which makes him not just a candidate but also a confident choice as a forward on the All-NBA LA Second Team. Montrezl Harrell easily makes this All-NBA LA Second Team as well.
Danny Green is a slightly better player than Patrick Beverly and Kyle Kuzma is a slightly better player than Montrezl Harrell. With the Lakers missing quality backup forward depth though, JaMychal Green fills out the final roster spot on this All-NBA LA Second Team.
Harrell and Kuzma will be atop the league’s Sixth-Man of the Year candidates if they both indeed come off the bench as expected, but they’ll have to find a way to overtake Lou Williams. Beverley and Green will play key roles in their team’s respective starting lineups. Harrell and Kuzma will be key components off the bench.
Kuzma is slightly better than Harrell and Green the same to Beverley. The Lakers are still looking to sign a good backup small forward. Whether it ends up being Andre Iguodala, Carmelo Anthony, or whoever else, expect the addition to replace JaMychal Green on this All-NBA LA Team. Once again, the Los Angeles Lakers’ All-NBA LA Second Team holds a slight advantage over the Clippers’.
