Lakers Coach Luke Walton Goes 1-on-1 With Randle & Mozgov In Practice

Los Angeles Lakers coach Luke Walton is one of the youngest coaches in the league. His active playing career hasn’t ended too long ago and he is younger than some active players in this league (Dirk Nowitzki, Paul Pierce, Vince Carter – to only name a few). Reason enough to test out his own front court in practice.

Luke Walton went 1-on-1 against his big men Randle, Mozgov, Black and Robinson. None of them scored until Randle’s second try. Walton also showed some solid defense on Julius Randle and drew a hilarious charge (flop!).

That young Lakers team already is pretty fun to watch. Just imagine where they’ll be in a few years.
