The Lakers signed Von Wafer to a two-year deal worth about $1 million. The second year on Wafer's deal is not guaranteed. Wafer, a 6-foot-5 guard from Florida State, was drafted 39th. He averaged 12.8 points on the Lakers' summer league team. "We like his size, his energy and he has great range," Kupchak said. "He's a young guy who we think, with the proper coaching, could one day be a good player."

Good move, a solid player off the bench, I think Phil will play him more than he usually plays rookies because well...they aren't that deep lol..
good move by the lakers. i think wafer will provide a spark off the bench with his scoring. he could turn out to be a great role player.
A good move by the Lakers. He's going to be a good player coming off the bench and getting the quick three's. Of course he will be hit or miss, as all shooters are. He'll have good games and bad games when shooting. As in the summer league, he's shown on nights he can score at 80% and on other nights 25%. Well I hope he can shoot around 2 three pointers a night coming off the bench. In some game's, his few shots may be the deciders.
The Lakers also signed Smush Parker. Its at the lakers site. So now now our only PGs are Vujajic and Smush.
