Draft Picks

The Lakers had a busy draft night with three picks overall and all three of those picks were in the first 34 picks overall in the draft. However, there’s no doubt their biggest prize coming from the draft is point guard D’Angelo Russell, who was taken second overall.

Later in the first round with the 27th overall pick, the Lakers shocked everyone watching by taking Larry Nance Jr. out of Wyoming.

With their lone second-round pick and the 34th overall selection, the Lakers chose small forward Anthony Brown out of Stanford.
