After signing him on Thursday, the Lakers have waived guard Marcus Allen, the team announced today in a press release.
Allen, who played his college ball at Stanford, spent last season with the South Bay Lakers, L.A.’s G League affiliate. His brief stint on the NBA roster this week was seemingly designed to ensure he gets an Exhibit 10 bonus worth up to $50K if he spends at least 60 days with South Bay again this year.
In his lone preseason appearance for the Lakers on Friday, Allen had four points, an assist, and a pair of steals in 21 minutes.
Los Angeles now has 19 players under contract.
I wonder if the Raiders will pick him up?
I heard he’s signing with the Chiefs.
Grand opening, grand closing.
That was quick.
