Andrew Bynum‘s attempted NBA comeback included an appearance this week at the Lakers’ practice facility, tweets Shams Charania of The Athletic. It wasn’t considered an official workout for the team, but Bynum was permitted to participate in activities at the gym.
L.A.’s current front office has an “open door” at the facility for current and former players, Charania adds (Twitter link). Bynum spent seven season with the Lakers, earning All-Star honors in 2011/12. He is arranging workouts with other teams in his quest to return to the NBA after a four-year absence, according to Charania.
Now 30, Bynum hasn’t had a successful season since his All-Star campaign. The Sixers picked him up in 2012 in the four-team trade that sent Dwight Howard to L.A., but knee problems prevented him from ever suiting up for Philadelphia. He signed with the Cavaliers in 2013 and played 24 games before being traded to the Bulls, who immediately waived him. Bynum’s last NBA experience was two games with the Pacers late in the 2013/14 season.
I hope we sign him. Can’t be worse than Zubac
Yes he can.
You think Zubac is bad?
Yea Zubac is a goofy bum
I’m convinced Anthony Davis will be a Laker by the trade deadline. That’s why they signed Randle and Okafor, they are gearing up for trading Davis to LA. The Lakers will likely offer them Ingram,Caldwell-Pope,Wagner, and Beasley for Davis. Lakers lineup will be:
Lonzo-Hart-Bron-Kuzma-Davis
Heck if we are just saying things. Why not Lakers 2nd round pick for Anthony Davis.
Ikr lmao
Huge overpay by the Lakers. Cash considerations should suffice.
You forgot a 3rd pick?
That would be one of the worst trades of all time.
Warriors are shaking in their boots at this anouncment.
That would be awesome if AD was to go to the Lakers, that would be a very good move for the league. Then the Lakers would be the clear favorites. Wherever AD gets moved (if he gets moved) should be automatically the favorites, be it Boston, Lakers or if it is GSW then they will be unbeatable, he would be right away the best player in any team he goes, I guess he is the best player in the league, hence why every team would love to have him.
So is a failed NOLA franchise part of the leagues plans?
He is already on a team and clearly they aren’t the favorites to win anything.
PBA Championships baby
Bynum was cut loose by the Pacers because he reinjured his knee bowling.
