As the Los Angeles Lakers attempt to remain in championship contention in the final seasons of LeBron James’ historic career, making solid moves on the margins
Trey Jemison III spoke on how grateful he is to join the Los Angeles Lakers after almost quitting on his basketball career.
The Los Angeles Lakers pulled off one such move last week, signing Trey Jemison III on Friday after he was waived by the New Orleans Pelicans. Jemison signed a two-way contract with L.A., meaning he'll be able to play in the G League with the South Bay Lakers and on the big-league team.
The Lakers can still trade for a big man ahead of the deadline but are going to add some size in the meantime. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Los Angeles is planning to sign former New Orleans Pelicans center Trey Jemison. He was just recently waived by the team after playing in 16 games this season.
The New Orleans Pelicans may end up keeping Brandon Ingram despite rampant trade rumors ahead of the deadline.
"At 20-20 overall and sitting outside the play-in, the Golden State Warriors have a real chance to miss the playoffs this season unless they do something at the trade deadline.,"
January 22, 2020 was one of the most anticipated nights in New Orleans Pelicans' history. It was the night Zion Williamson made his NBA debut after being selected with the No. 1 draft pick the summer before.
Jemison went undrafted in 2023 after playing five years in college for the Clemson Tigers and his hometown team, the University of Alabama-Birmingham Blazers, where he earned All-Conference USA third-team and All-Defensive team honors during his final year.
New Lakers big man Trey Jemison was a little disappointed in himself after his debut with the team against the Nets.
The Golden State Warriors and the LA Lakers both play twice in Rivals Week, which culminates with Curry vs LeBron.
With the Pelicans’ wild victory being one of the highlights of the week, let's look at the other biggest comebacks of the season.
