I really like this guy. I'm impressed with him. He has some serious potential. I was watching him play last night against the Denver Nuggets and he was the leading scorer on the bench with 14 points and 7 rebounds. He playing abilities are very much the like of Trevor Ariza.
Ebanks does look like Trevor 2.0 Athletic, aggressive on defense and rangy. He'll have to improve his long distance shooting like Trevor did and grasp the offense if he wants to crack the rotation. I'm glad the Lakers addressed their lack of athleticism on the wing this offseason. Ebanks, Barnes, re-signing Shannon Brown give this team a lot more guys who can play above the rim. I'm just hoping these new players can log more minutes in the regular season and lighten the load on Kobe, Fish, etc. Remember how many times last year our bench would come in and blow double digit leads? It forced PJax to play his starters extended minutes. I don't want a repeat of that.
