No need to apologize. Happy Father's Day Trev and all the lakers nation Fathers out there
Being considered as old at age 22 is astonishing to me
facts lmao, its insane people acting like a 22-23 year old can't improve even till they are like 27-28 years old. Edey can definitely with NBA coaching and reps add a 3 ball and become more polished
It's old for a rookie because it takes a center 3 to 4 years of development to become acclimated to the NBA.
@@Flush0000usually the 3 and 4 year players come in ready to contribute. The younger prospects are mainly potential based picks.
@@Flush0000with the lakers luck they pass on him and he averages a double double for a team
In basketball. Players used to be able to come to the league straight out of high school.
The fact that staying in college 3-4 years is a negative is funny to me.
Exactly! I remember when it was like finding a unicorn when you found a one and done player or even better one straight from high school. Now it’s the norm, even preferred to seasoned 4 year college prospects. That’s why the game is not as good as yesteryears.

@@juanwoodruff6202 Yeah. I remember when being a high school player was a risky pick. Kobe fell to 13 because of it. Now we have guys like James Wisemen getting drafted playing 12 games in college and he went number 2 in the draft. I have no idea why a guy with 4 years of proof of their skill is a bad thing, but some young guy with no developed skill at all is what causes GM's to get excited about.
I dont get it. All the Lakers need him to do is defend and grab rebounds and let AD play his natural position at PF. Nobody is asking him to be a Top 5 all time center
Zach please still keeping my fingers crossed LAKERS LET'S GO!!!👍👍🏀🏀💪💜💛💜💛
I love the size and physicality of Edey! He could definitely do a job as a screener, rebounder, and shot blocker if used correctly .
Edey is 7'4 300 lbs.... imagine if we had that body out there during the Nuggets series. Aaron Gordon got SOOO many offensive boards
That sure would have helped Denver light us up from the outside. 😂
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
Edey ain't going 17th pick 😂😂😂 he going way before that
Happy Father’s Day to Trevor and all of Lakers Nation! Hope y’all have a blessed one
He's a better version of Brook Lopez. I think Lopez is his floor.
He's an NBA 20 pts, 12 rbs, 2 blocks per game center.
Happy Father’s Day LN
That shot may come along over time but in the meantime. Put his 7'4 big ass (pause) in the paint and let him go to work. Call up Kareem to help him with footwork, confidence and mobility in the paint. Over time this kid can be great. At minimum he can be like Ivica Zubac as the floor potential and I'm okay with that
Edey would be great for us!
Yes
Lmao, people are really against getting Andre Drummond for a VET MIN? We don't need an all-star/starting level big. Wood and AD, and either Drummond/Edey/Val would be good enough. Just need bigs who can take a load off for AD when he's out. That was a big hole for us all season.
I don’t think Lakers retaining Drum for a Vet Min is the issue. I think the hype around this news will net Drum a contract above the Vet Min and Lakers may not be in the financial position to give him more than the Vet Min. If he comes to LA it’s because he wants to be here.
The skepticism on big men today is unreal. If Tim Duncan or Patrick Ewing were 22 coming out of college today they might be second rounders and only told to come off of the bench and shoot put backs from rebounds. If you are pulling down 12 rebs a game and unstoppable in the post it won't matter if you can shoot 3's or if you give up a few three's that might not even go in the basket. People act like 3's are layups, they're not. You still have to make them and you are still shooting below 50 percent if you are Steph Curry 2.0 Give me 80 percent plus layups all day long.
Andre Drummond part 2? HELL NO! 🤦🏾♂️
I am with you 100% Drummond was with the Lakers before it didn't work out I like Edey
Noooooo Oo to Andre Drummond..
Happy Father's day Trev. Zach Edey would be an excellent choice. I'm one of those people who was hoping Rob would pick up a reliable big ever since we lost Dwight and JaVale. Drummond didn't work the last time he was here. What is the definition of isanity???
Edey's not going to be there at 17. And we lived the Andre Drummond experience once. Any updates on Castleton? Can he make a leap?
22 year old, 3 or 4 years of college starter is a plus.
When did that ever become a negative?
I'd take that over a one and done 19 year old all day.
I agree Trevor with everything you said about the center role. Now you get what I've been saying.
Lessee, 7'4", 280+lbs, good rim protection and rebounder, and good ft shooter (because he's going to get fouled a lot). I'm not seeing why anyone would have an issue with the Lakers bringing this guy onboard to play alongside the Brow. WTF 🤔
Sure you're right
Zack Eddies ice cream how sweet it is!!!!!
This is a good positive update.
If Drummond is good enough to put on the roster today, then you have to ask why he was cut previously by the Lakers when they could have kept him for a minimum salary, we’ve been bleeding in the rebound dept. since Pelinka traded away or let go all the decent bigs we had since 2020
It's literally mentioned in the video.
@@kenlen8029Drummond was surprised when the Lakers didn’t retain him, it’s Pelinka’s job to fill the roster and he could have kept Drummond with the caveat of coming off the bench, instead he replaced him with washed players or undersized players, Pelinka is the problem IMO.
Happy Father’s Day Trevor!
Thanks for taking time out from your day to share some more Lakers news and information. Hey if it comes down to JJ being our next head coach it’s crucial that they put some good coaching around him!!!!
Trevor enjoyed your evening 🟣🟡
They better off just having Castleton develop with a backup role than bringing back Drummond
Hopefully Lakers can draft him at 17th pick he can be a Zubac or Lively . Would be nice to see him at the 5
Yeah, I would take flyer on Edey. He brings something to the table that no one else can. And we need that something.
He is great setting a sealed screen, rebounding, and okay from 3. He can run the floor, alternate Edey with fast center.
Drummond stunk it up when he was with the Lakers.
You can't drive to the basket with drummond . He clogs the middle so no on him.
Totally agree, why does Trevor keep bringing this guy up.
@@seanp7874wasn’t that before they got AD
@@laker1championships452you guys say this but will ask for dwight howard 😂
I totally agree he look like an old man out there playing😅
“Rough times” for Chicago the same could be said for us. We should’ve traded DLo, now he can walk for nothing. We should’ve also traded AR at the deadline when his stock was still high, because during the 1st round vs Denver he didn’t show up 😢
Zach Edey is too good to pass up.
Please not Drummond 🤦♂️
Lakers should and will get him.. than go get a pg and sg we set💯💪🏾✊🏽📌
Moving Colin Castleton up can be a nice play for LA if Edey goes earlier than expected. His game compliments AD and he can rotate between the PF & C positions. Lakers should leave no stone unturned, including in house.
Can Edey adjust/fit into Coach JJ off ball movement schematics, providing he’s available for Lakers?
I’m in on Zach Edey also
Edey could be their center of the future - if they're able to get him at 17 and they pass on him, chances are they'll regret it.
Idk bro. I watched him play against Michigan State and all their guys were just putting him in P&R and was killing him. He dominated offensively but teams were literally picking on him in college 😂
Yes to Edey. Based on draft combine he is more agile than Sarr, Clingan, Missi and Holmes.
Same things experts r complaining bout Edey was the same poop experts were complaining bout that big dude from Denver!!!
Only concern I have for Zach is mobility on defense against wemby kat n other stretch bigs or mobile high flying bigs like lively n Jarrett
Look at Zubak after we traded him😮. I think this would be a good draft PU.
Why bring back someone that clearly doesn’t work that the problem now
If you mean Drummond he completely in a different mindset now before he still wanted to be that guy still now he’s a back up big he’s a rebounding machine something Hayes could not do him and Wood would be nice together coming off the bench
Exactly Drummond is a physical center that this team needs badly.
The coach didn't play him enough....
Edey is the shot of adrenaline the Lakers need to turn their season around, I'm dead serious!🤣
The Lakers will probably have to move up to 11-15 to get Edey. Use #55 pick wisely, no Bronny.
smh we always trying to get our old guys back. genius front office.
Ty it's really annoying tbh
Drummond is the guy I wanted during last year's trade mine and once again the Lakers season ended because they could not rebound the ball same as the season before
Edey would be nice! AD need to be at the 4 period! Drummond would be solid off the bench
Drummond = elite rebounding
Man, I forgot about Colin Castleton. I thought he was deserving of more spot duty with the A team than he got. I'm looking forward to seeing significantly more of him this up coming season.
He looked a bit under sized last season. Hopefully he gets some size
Castleton lacks height
@@scorpionvseverybody6524Ben Wallace, Al Horford, Bam Adebayo all lack height. Castleton taller than all listed by 1-2 inches.
You'll see him once or twice in garbage time. Games are too close with 0 perimeter defense. Until that's fixed no center will be seen besides AD. It's been 2.5 years guys and you still daydream about a center when this team has zero 2-way wings that actually have experience enough to play (Max is going to have a breakout season yeah right).
Happy fathers day to 1 haven't got father 😘🙏
As long as he can rebound Andre Drummond is not washed when it comes to paying for the Lakers.
He's exactly what they need
Id love yo acquire, Caruso, Edey and Klay. A motivated Klay on this team with LeBron and AD level gravity could be wicked
Drummond will probably get the TPMLE . I like Edey more and more. He can play with AD if he can space the floor (3pt shooting). Plus he can be main backup for AD at Center.
Let's go Zach Edey
if edey can improve the 3's he can be like brook lopez. anthony davis ability to roam defend and switch can cover his lateral slowness and just have him blocking shots at the rim
Rasheed Wallace said he'd take Edey at 1 because hes the best player hes seen all year. Not a bad way of looking at things. Sheed definitely not gonna over complicate it.
Nobody had dominated college like Edey and its been vs some if the deepest roster due to NIL keeping guys in college longer. And because of NIL drafting 4 yr college players will be the norm moving forward.
He'll play drop coverage so what
I prefer Edey over Drummond or Valenciunas just because we can work on his offense and movement beacause he is young
Happy Fathers Day!! And please for the love of god and and everything holy, Trev do NOT open that DM 😂😂😂
Please, let the Lakers get Edey.
Our #1 target needs to Zach edey. Although he lacks quickness, he has a 7 10.5 wingspan that can compensate for that. His length will alter shots. AD needs to work on his midrange jumper and 3 point shot this offseason. Our 2nd and 3rd targets should be Alex caruso and Cp3. Forget Drummond, let's get Dwight Howard as backup center.
I think the lakers should get andre Drummond and don't sleep on this dude
hopefully every other team believes zach edey is too old for top 20 and lands with the lakers
I would look to trade with the Bulls in this draft:
Proposed Trade:
Lakers 17th Pick + Reaves + Reddish (which I’m sure he will opt-in) and a future 2nd for Caruso + Torrey Craig + their 11th pick.
Lakers get their guard that can create and defend really well in Devin Carter who they appear to really like. Opens up the door to use JHS in a trade. They save money on the trade overall, plus not having to resign Prince since they will now have a backup 3/D in Craig on a much better contract. Lakers will have more money to resign Christie. If DLo stays, it helps to cover his defensive flaws in the meantime. If DLo walks. Lakers still have enough assets IMO to go trade for Murray which I think they should do even if DLo stays, and use DLo in a trade.
if we can get Edey
Get rid of the two big to trade and bring both the above. Can cancer James go too with Pelinka and Jeanie???
Drummond, Castleton, Edey. Looks good to me.
I think Drummond would be a perfect fit for OKC. IMO
We need to be discussing a real power forward then if you want Davis playing the 5 that much.
Studio stu over bronny jr
Studio Stu over WestBRICK
We should be looking for a center to give 15 or 20 minutes rest to AD and sometimes play 5 to move AD few minutes to the 4.But we can't move LBJ to the 3 at his age because that will kill him long term.We should go after Edey and Make a trade for Murray with Atlanta,because we can't start the season with D-Lo and Reaves,they are slow and they are a liability on Defense
Is Zach mobile enough for the modern NBA? Gonna get killed in pick n rolls.
He was getting killed in P&R in college 😂 by players that won’t make the NBA
The Lakers want Zach Edey. He will taken in the Top 10 just to make sure we don't get him. #LakerCurse
My off-season priories-Draft Edey and Bronny, trade for Caruso (and Laurie if at all possible), sign Bol Bol, avoid JJ
Do not sign BOL BOL wtf
Tristan de Silva or trade up for carter…but trading the pick would be top option for me…go all in on Murray bogdanovic
Happy Father’s Day!
AD at the 4 creates way more advantages - just accept it! he was way more effective and in rhythm with Javale/Dwight than he has been since. he has to work too hard at the 5
we already have many old people
Drummond can't dribble from midrange/free throw line towards the basket, w/o having the ball intercepted. Get someone who can really dribble such Markannen, Eubanks, Claxton, etc.
Y’all should stop hyping that 3ball.
Most bigs getting benched for shooting 3s without the greenlight from coach and most coaches won’t allow that unless it’s a proven shooter. Let alone the fact he’s 7’4.
I would rather have Omer Yurtseven or Goga Bitadze than Andre Drummond. Definitely need a center with the 17th pick if Lakers keep it
I think people need to stop talking about a players age. If a player can play, who cares how old he is. Their will be more older players now that kids have a 5th year and the NIL money as well.
Why do we need an 7'4" to shoot the 3. I want him to be used like Shaq, punish them down low. Andre Drummond can't shoot the 3, and he is also older thatn 22. Yes, must put AD at the 4.
Drummond no Edey yes😅
I'm not a Drummond fan but he fits the type. He came and went. This is a terrible Lebron era way of running the cap space business. We need a center, not a renter.
Trevor, I like your ideas. Does Rob Pelinka have the clout to make these moves happen? Or does he have to check with the Rambi first?
Keep us a way of Drummond please…..!!!!!!!!!!!
You're still so obsessed with a big shooting thr three.
Well the most important thing a big can bring to this team is rebounding
Go look at every Lakers loss for the last two seasons and you will find that the majority of the games turned during the stretch when Anthony Davis is on the bench and the Lakers gave up a string of offensive rebounds.
That is it that is number one
Vogel defense was great. But he didnt every try to let Big Penguin fit into the stystem. And figure out how to play together w/AD. if i recall correctly he wudnt dap up vogel on sideline at end of one of the last games. He wud get a few mins here or there. Vogel Walton and Ham rotations were beyond trash
its not about what you want trev..
Next season is guranteed to ne a disaster. Thank you Jeanie Buss and Rob Palinka.
5) Edey 4) AD 3) LBJ 2) Vando 1) Gary Trent jr…..who scoring on us?? Lol! Let LBJ run the point, just not guard the point
No On Edey - He is a Young Boban that cannot Run with US on Offense and will be a Huge Liability on Defense bcuz He will be pulled away from the Basket on Pic & Roll Plays!!!
If We keep Our 1st Round Pic, the only players We should Trade Up for are Ware & Da Silva.
Kareem would get the rebound and throw a outlet pass never go to the other end of the Court that's how he stayed in the league so long
Drummond is old and washed up. We need a young big man like Edey🎉🎉🎉
AD doesn't want to play the 5 full time, Rob should have signed Howard or Cousins two years ago we seen that work in 2020 and Drummond is a good choice if they can get him again
Get Edey and another big this off-season. Stop playing
Why the hell would Andre Drummond want too come back too that toxicity
Because he isn't going to get any playing time especially in the playoffs teams will just switch hunt him plus he doesn't spread the floor soooo yeahhh Lakers or magic
@@scorpionvseverybody6524 lol
Ad needs to go back to the 4
And why exactly did we cut Boogie?
I think attitude
Could've had Tatum...took Ball😮...need a big get the Purdue guy
Right
What about moody as a center??
Too little😮
I put him down low spread everyone else out of the way if they double or triple team him a kick out for the three
Drummond would be great too.
