Former UCLA guard Zach LaVine continues to increase his draft stock ahead of the 2014 NBA Draft.
During his workout with the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday, LaVine nailed a 46-inch vertical leap, breaking the team's previous mark of 44 inches set by former Louisville guard Peyton Siva in 2013.

LaVine, a projected first-round pick and longtime Lakers fan, was one of 23 prospects working out for the team.
"Me being a Laker fan since I was younger, just having the experience to come here, it's a lot of fun for me," LaVine said, via the Los Angeles Times. "I'm taking it all in, looking at the sights, looking at all the Kobe and Shaq pictures. I'm having fun."
