    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>EL SEGUNDO - The Los Angeles Lakers have signed free agent guard Dwayne Mitchell, it was announced today. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released.

    Mitchell, a 6’5” 220-pound guard out of Louisiana Lafayette, played the majority of last season for the Iowa Energy of the NBA Development League before leaving in February to join Brose Baskets Bamberg in Germany. In 31 games including 29 starts with the Energy, Mitchell averaged 20.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.60 steals in 37.3 minutes, earning a spot in the 2008 D-League All-Star game.

    In 20 games with Bamberg, Mitchell, 25, averaged 10.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists while shooting .504 from the field.

    Most recently, Mitchell played for the Lakers 2008 Summer-Pro League team in Las Vegas, averaging 6.7 points on .619 shooting, 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.83 steals in 15.0 minutes over six games.</div>

    He'll probably be competing for a spot on the final roster, no?

    I'm surprised they haven't targeted any big men with the loss of Ronny. I wonder if we're content with Mbenga and Mihm.

    Well. They test Robert Tractor Traylor yesterday. And Elton Brown and Lorenzo Mata-Real are also training with the team.

    Why dont bring Josh Powell? He was waived by the clippers.
