Lakers choose Croatian center Ivica Zubac with the 32nd pick

Lakerland will love this kid. He's a life-long laker fan. so much, in fact, he told mike trudell that he cried during Kobe's 60 pt game.

the draftexpress guys are really stoked the lakers picked him. looked at as first round talent, but fell to the 2nd because he wanted to come over this summer and most teams wanted him to stay abroad a year so they can save money.

He was projected to be picked 16th but he didnt want to be stashed away. Lakers win again

His game reminds me of a mix between Neo from the Matrix and Brolly from DBZ

LOL... if he is being compared to Shaq in any shape or form he would not be a 2nd round draft pick... Shaq with Dirks shooting would be the ultimate GOAT.

I don't see the Shaq or Dirk. He has no mid-range like Dirk. Everything is a post move or soft dunk. So just like Tim Duncan. He's a little slow and plays smaller than his size but is good fundamentally. He's going to have to put on some muscle, 60lbs worth, to be able to play in this league
