L.A. clearly likes the 21-year-old, and he’ll look to prove to the Lakers that they’re making the right decision by inking him to this deal.
Doumbouya has appeared in two games this season for the Lakers. In the first contest, the youngster went for 10 points and four rebounds. He also added two steals and a block on the defensive end.
In the second game, he posted four points and two rebounds, adding one steal and one block defensively. He got roughly eight minutes of action in both games.
Time will tell if Doumbouya can make a solid impact for the Lakers going forward.
