    Played @ Cali in college...lives in LA

    He averaged 6.4 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocked shots in 32 games for the Golden Bears.

    Great- another Soumy Samake temporary pickup. I wonder if he even sqeeks past training camp..

    Anybody know anything about this guy? [​IMG]

    yeah i watched him play in college. he has some decent skills, but is a lazy player. i would be surprised if he makes the final roster. he is better than soumy, but not by much. i want the lakers to bring back guy rucker. i thought he played well for them in the pre-season last year.

    i think leon smith might actually make the team.

    Leon Smith is a better player. Hopefully, Sampson is dumped in Training Camp and Smith becomes the Lakers 12th man.

    well Sampson could have been a first round pick if he would have stayed in school

    Well, Madsen was a first round pick...but look at him.

    cause he was like the last pick in the first round in a weak class. Sampson was also one of the youngest players in the league last season.
