Player Review

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Chris Kaman

June 4, 2014 by Andre Khatchaturian

Shotchart 1401858533641

General Thoughts on the Season Chris Kaman was the fifth highest paid player on the Los Angeles Lakers this season making $3.1 million. However, he had the second fewest minutes (19 minutes per game) on the team among all the regulars. Only Robert Sacre received less playing time. Usually, a player receives little playing time […]

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Kendall Marshall

Kendall Marshall

General Thoughts on the Season If I would have told you before the season started that a Lakers’ point guard would be 2nd in the league in assists, you’d have thought “wow, Steve Nash really came back well from his injury, huh?” or even “man, Steve Blake really is thriving under Mike D’Antoni!” right? And […]

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Jordan Farmar

May 13, 2014 by Daniel Rapaport

General Thoughts on the Season Like so many Lakers, Jordan Farmar’s homecoming season (he’s a graduate of Taft High School in Woodland Hills) was plagued by a multitude of nagging injuries. His calf, hamstring and groin wouldn’t cooperate all season, and he was only able to suit up for 41 games. Farmar had four separate […]

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Jordan Hill

May 10, 2014 by Andre Khatchaturian

General Thoughts on Player: The buzzer sounded at the Bradley Center on a chilly spring Milwaukee night and the Los Angeles Lakers found themselves on the losing end once again in a season that just didn’t end quickly enough. The 16-time NBA champions had just been swept in a season series against the Milwaukee Bucks. […]

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Pau Gasol

May 9, 2014 by Darius Soriano

Pau Shot Chart

General Thoughts on the Season Like nearly every other player on the roster, Pau came into this season with something to prove and looking for redemption. After being pushed out of his comfort zone last year while masquerading as a “stretch” four in Mike D’Antoni’s spread pick and roll attack while flanking Dwight Howard, Pau […]

Los Angeles Lakers Player Grades: Nick Young

May 6, 2014 by Phillip Barnett

General Thoughts On The Season Nick Young was brought in this summer during the whirlwind of reclamation signings made by the Lakers this past summer as they tried to put a competitive roster together. The signing was on the heels of Kobe’s Achilles exploding, the team being swept out of the first round and Dwight […]

2009-10 Player Review: Derek Fisher

August 26, 2010 by Phillip Barnett

In 1996, there is no way the Lakers could have known that they were drafting a future five time NBA Champion, the future president of the player’s union and one of the most stand-up guys in all of sports. Considering Derek Fisher’s roller coaster season, the Lakers still don’t know exactly what to expect from […]

2009-10 Player Review: Andrew Bynum

August 16, 2010 by Jeff Skibiski

[picappgallerysingle id=”9126872″] SEASON REVIEW: Andrew Bynum’s progress during his first five seasons in the league has been a tale of two cities for the Lakers. The 2009-10 season was no different as the center once again showed promising flashes of his enormous potential, while also disappearing for long stretches. At this point in his career, […]
