While the team is sorely lacking in outside shooters, and it was expected to eye Ben McLemore for example, the management of the Lakers decided to test Moe Harkless. It is absolutely not the profile sought but the team made him come for a test. Maybe the leaders feel there is a flaw in the 3/4 positions, especially in defence.
With his 621 matches on the clock and 33 in the playoffs for ten years, the former winger has the bottle and he has proven himself in Portland, Sacramento and New York. He is a duty player, ready to deal with the best opposing striker.
This summer, he moved from Sacramento to Atlanta, before finally being picked up by the Thunder as a medical joker after the serious injury of Chet Holmgren. But OKC executives eventually cut him off, and he’s been without a club since the takeover.
