Right now they're running him and Damian Jones with Bron/AD/Russ as starting 5 in camp.

Lakers have essentially another overhaul makeover on the fly, but I do feel like they've got better pieces this year. Crazy to think of their average age last year (oldest roster in the league) - to this year when they've only got 3 guys over 30.

The back-court is stacked - I think by design (to ship Russ if they don't gel within 15-20 games). That is, if there are any takers lol and the FO actually has a plan.

But with Ham, I want to see what this group can do before Christmas with so much competition in the back-court. if Russ doesn't perform, he might himself coming off the bench real quick with Schröder, Nunn & Pat Bev itching to get time.
