Adou Thiero

LAL Forward #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Adou Thiero amassed 18 points (6-of-6 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), 10 rebounds, three assists, three steals and one blocked shot in Saturday’s loss to the Warriors.

Thiero capped his summer with a perfect shooting performance, as he did not miss a shot from the field or the foul line on Saturday. Add in the rebounds, and he finished with his second double-double in Las Vegas. While the Lakers did make multiple frontcourt signings this summer, there is still a need for Thiero’s athleticism. He isn’t a player who must be selected in drafts, but it would be unsurprising if Thiero found a role within JJ Redick’s rotation.
Cameron Carr

LAL Guard

Cameron Carr recorded 17 points (5-of-16 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Warriors.

Carr and the Lakers fell short in their quest to reach Sunday’s Summer League title game, losing to the Warriors, 92-88. The rookie had a tough day from outside the arc, making just one of his eight attempts. However, Carr was still able to put up 17 points, and his overall summer performance was excellent. While the Lakers did load up on players in free agency, Carr has the tools needed to be an effective 3-and-D wing immediately. And there’s a lot to like about his long-term ceiling as well.
Cameron Carr

LAL Guard

Cameron Carr tallied 14 points (5-of-12 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds and one steal in Thursday’s win over the Bulls.

Chicago’s Caleb Wilson had the better individual game, but Carr was part of the team that won Thursday’s matchup by a 105-82 final score. The 24th overall pick in last month’s draft has looked ready to contribute immediately for the Lakers, and there is never not a need for capable 3-and-D wings in today’s NBA. With the Lakers now 4-0 and headed to the semifinals, it’s unlikely that Carr gets shut down for Saturday’s game. If they get to the final on Sunday, good luck getting him to sit down.
Chris Mañon

LAL Guard #30

Chris Mañon finished Tuesday’s win over the Clippers with 17 points (5-of-14 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 11 rebounds, two assists, two steals and two three-pointers.

While Cameron Carr and Adou Thiero (13/6/3/1/1) have been the stars for the Lakers in Las Vegas, Mañon’s production has improved with each game. The two-way contract forward posted his first double-double of the summer on Tuesday and also recorded two steals. Mañon is already on a two-way contract, and his opportunities next season may be limited given the Lakers’ overall roster. As a result, there isn’t much to expect from him in fantasy basketball for the foreseeable future.
Cameron Carr

LAL Guard

Cameron Carr amassed 23 points (8-of-18 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), one rebound, two assists, one block and three three-pointers in Tuesday’s win over the Clippers.

Despite a right thumb injury, Carr led the way offensively as the Lakers moved to 3-0 in Las Vegas. His eight-point flurry to end the third quarter blew open Tuesday’s “Battle of Los Angeles,” and the rookie wing has been consistent on both ends of the floor. Even with the additions the Lakers made to their roster this offseason, Carr looks like a player who can have an immediate impact under head coach JJ Redick. Fantasy managers should definitely keep an eye on him during the preseason and for the rest of summer league.
Ziaire Williams

LAL Forward #1

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Lakers signed Ziaire Williams to a one-year, $3 million contract.

Despite averaging a career-high 10.2 points per game last season, Williams’ contract option was not picked up by the Nets. He will now join a Lakers roster that harbors ambitions of contending in the West, even with the LeBron James era ending. While he posted solid numbers over his two seasons in Brooklyn, Williams was still not reliable enough to be trusted in most fantasy leagues. That’s likely to remain the case in Los Angeles.
Peter Suder

LAL Guard

Peter Suder recorded 14 points (5-of-8 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), two assists and two three-pointers in Saturday’s win over the Mavericks.

After shooting 42 percent from three during his final college season, Suder was signed to a two-way deal by the Lakers almost immediately after he went undrafted. The rookie had a solid night in Las Vegas, shooting over 50 percent from the field overall and 2-of-5 from beyond the arc. Given his contract and the Lakers’ depth on the wings, Suder is likely to spend most of his rookie season in the G League.
Arthur Kaluma

LAL Small Forward

Arthur Kaluma tallied 34 points (11-of-16 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds and six three-pointers in Saturday’s win over the Mavericks.

Not selected in the 2025 draft, Kaluma spent all of last season with the Lakers’ G League affiliate. While there’s certainly familiarity between the player and the franchise, few expected the show Kaluma put on Saturday night. He shot 6-of-10 from beyond the arc and 5-of-6 from two, torching the Mavericks for 34 points. The Lakers have already allocated their three two-way contract slots, so Kaluma may be competing for an Exhibit 10 deal, which would guarantee him a training camp invite.
Cameron Carr

LAL Guard

Cameron Carr recorded 18 points (7-of-13 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, one assist, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer in Friday’s win over the Thunder.

Coming off a good run at the California Classic, Carr performed well in his first appearance at the Vegas Summer League. The lone negative for the first-round pick out of Baylor was his three-point shooting, as he made just one of five attempts. However, perimeter shooting should not be a concern when evaluating Carr’s chances of playing rotation minutes as a rookie. And he’s played well enough this summer to raise questions about whether the Lakers will shut him down before the conclusion of the Vegas Summer League.
Adou Thiero

LAL Guard #1

Adou Thiero finished Friday’s win over the Thunder with 20 points (8-of-14 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks.

After a solid showing at the California Classic, Thiero was one of the Lakers’ key contributors in Friday’s 96-84 win in Las Vegas. His athleticism was on display throughout the game, with the Lakers’ forward supplying athletic finishes and blocked shots. With LeBron James and Rui Hachimura out of the picture, there’s an opportunity for Thiero to earn a spot in JJ Redick’s rotation. In the short term, it’s fair to wonder if Thiero will be shut down before the Vegas Summer League continues. Even with the poor three-point shooting, he has looked like a player who has outgrown Summer League.
