Discussions regarding what the Los Angeles Lakers will do on draft night June 22 simply won't stop, especially with Lonzo Ball and his ever-present father - LaVar - pushing to be drafted by the team at No. 2 overall.
Despite recent rumors regarding in-house disagreement over whether the Lakers would indeed select Ball, most executives at the Adidas Euro Camp ongoing in Italy still believe the Lakers will draft him, according to Scott Howard-Cooper of NBA.com
The Lakers are also partial toward Kentucky guard De'Aaron Fox and Kansas forward Josh Jackson, according to Howard-Cooper.
