I only know of Hinson from your videos. Hinson absolutely lived up to your hype. This dude has a really nice-looking J and didn’t seem to mind getting physical. I think I even heard the commentators mention he has a football background. Either way, I’m excited to see what else Hinson can do with some playing time, especially on the defensive end and on the boards. Great call. 👏

[@AISTheLakersShow]

Ya he has a football body but the shot of a sniper. He will do well I'm the league. Much like rui he's likely best at the 4 spot and could be a solid rotation piece. I'm high on Hinson. I don't think he will be a superstar or anything but I think he will be a very big contributing piece

[@Chiefmane1]

Hinson needs to be in the rotation

[@IamHandsomeRob1911]

You definitely called it on Hinson. He was balling.

[@warrenlaws2407]

HINSON DONT BE MISSING 🤣

[@tjboxingsports3584]

Love this pickup!! He will be a perfect fit for a Rui or Bron replacement, (Bron year to year). Dude is NBA READY NOW!!

[@Unbiasedlakerfan]

You really going crazy after one game

[@btsdancestudio5691]

''First...I like how he moves his feet on D. Big strong and light on his feet.

[@sherbstone]

The word was if he gives the effort on D he would see time

[@aaronwimbish9382]

Football background

[@waynejones6575]

I never saw him play but his highlights were impressive and I watched highlights of this game as well and he was great , was ready to ball

[@travesotom6890]

Hinson looks good shot really well but defensively he has a ways to go, he’s not ready this year, he needs to stay in the G League for this year and needs to improve his defense and Knecht didn’t play bad just didn’t shoot well maybe he had the jitters but he was able to get to the rim and score other ways I think he will be fine we can’t just go overboard on one preseason game and Kuhse played really well at the point guard, Lewis had a good overall game he has gotten better since last year 😂😆

[@AISTheLakersShow]

He would be fine at the 4 defensively like Rui is but playing the 3 there a real concern. If Lakers end up trading Rui I wouldn't hate him getting back up 4 minutes

[@logicalbrother]

I never get high on dudes that score a lot in college yet stay all 4 yrs.This Hinson dude does look ready.

[@garybernales1211]

Real one? It hurts to think that while the other teams rejoice in their acquisition, here we are digging deep for positives in the Lakers signing that fans and analysts didn't even notice.

[@jameschan9634]

the yearly searching the junkyard during the LeBron era of the Lakers, and the False Hope in what we find at the bottom of the heap is disgusting.

[@multivitamins7409]

give him reddish or jhs roster spot

[@appetizerssushi7121]

I hope JJ, plays Hinson every game 😅

[@MaximusDC406]

We have HisSon and HinSon on the team , which one is better? 😅😂

[@donfreeman8920]

LOL!!!😂 😂

[@aaronwimbish9382]

Hinson new name is BIG DAWG

[@alvaroalfaro9478]

Like hinson's ability to find seams and get off shots quickly. His defense is worrisome in that he had 4 fouls in 18 minutes. He's not a replacement for Rui or any guys yet.

[@AISTheLakersShow]

You also have to keep in mind this summer league and these refs are trying to make the league also. I like his aggressiveness and physicality. He also just like rui will be best at the 4. His defense will be fine there but the concerns are if he gets spots at the 2 or 3. He just needs better discipline in the regard but that's common with rookies.

[@hftak9009]

start bronny dalton maxwell blake and castleton pls

[@Benjames9696]

He reminds Me of Robert Horry.

[@mrvxg4820]

I’m hyping him up with you big homie!

[@juicewrld9867]

Hinson is good im with you im hoping he gets playing time for the Lakers. I think Knetch was overrated and Hinson should have been hyped up with the same exact Levelhype Dalton got.

[@AISTheLakersShow]

I like dalton alot too. He showed he can get to his spots, good passing ability and ability to pull up and get to the rim. His shot just wasn't falling. I think Knecht will be much better as summer league progresses. Hinson I think can be a solid addition out the gate, I'm high on Hinson

[@juicewrld9867]

@@AISTheLakersShow oh yeah i like Dalton. I just don't think Dalton big enough to guard Joker (Nuggets)or (Sobonis of the kings) we keep forgetting A.d. can't guard them to big for Anthony Davis, which was why i was hoping we got da silva or zach eddy. Bruh da silva would have been better than Dalton in my opinion he can shoot and defend bigger player he has the size.

[@aaronwimbish9382]

Max lewis needs to stay more active

[@AISTheLakersShow]

I think it was like Christie Last Year, Christie wasn't really active the whole time either but just pick and chose his spots. Gotta keep in mind it's summer league and he's already got his spot. I'm sure Lakers don't want him hurt nor does he have alot to prove just show he's ready when needed

[@aaronwimbish9382]

@@AISTheLakersShow he wants to play for the lakers not just South Bay, he’s gotta stay hungry bro

[@baggingup40]

It's been reported there are not assets that any team wants from the Lakers outside of Reeves. That's why the Lakers can't make a trade without over playing. You also can't have a 6'0 three and D guy. We are not long or athletic enough on the perimeter or inside. This is one reason we struggle to rebound the ball. Boston Minny and OKC have an archetype of player they are looking for. Mostly long athletes that can dribble pass and shoot. Wtf are we building? Non athletes that can't defend aren't long for their positions that can't dribble or shot create.

[@jameschan9634]

Lakers don't have any assets wanted by other teams, so what do they do? At the very bottom of the Draft, they choose a 6'1", 4ppg non starter on a losing college team, and give him a GUARANTEED FOUR (4!?!) year contract.

[@baggingup40]

@jameschan9634 due to the poor decision making. Giving trash players player options in contracts. Giving away draft picks in bad free agency deals. Overall we are a poorly run organization that's now backed in to a corner without options. We will be lucky to win 42 gms. We will have to give away all 3 first rd picks just to make 1 ok move.

[@jameschan9634]

@@baggingup40 yep, you're so so right. And we can point to 2 people, and no one else: LeEGO, and his squeeze, Jeannie Buss.

[@juicewrld9867]

At the same time I don't like trading Rui , he is on a long contract and shot 45%+ from 3pter why we trade our best 3pt shooter who not lebron.

[@AISTheLakersShow]

I get it and like him alot. I don't wanna trade him but he's best at the 4 and Bron under contract atleast another 2 years. By the time Rui gets to play his natural position the dude will be 28+.

[@dennisknowles9293]

The jury is still out on Hinson and Knecht

[@davidjb7489]

Bro you need to chill love this dude but There’s a reason why he went undrafted he will get exposed on D he needs a lot of time in the G just to become an ok defender and even then he might not ever be that considering his age

[@AISTheLakersShow]

Ya he went undrafted because he's 24. If this dude was 20-22 would of been a top pick. Look at Reed Sheppard, Hinson a bigger reed Sheppard but 4 years older so wasn't the 3rd pick. Reaves went undrafted and a 15/5/5 guy. His defense will be fine at the 3 like Rui is but at the 3 he definitely has concerns. No ones expecting this guy to be a superstar but he's worth the hype

[@aaronwimbish9382]

He’s actually a good defender and was good on defense all game! He’s a late a bloomer he actually fits the nba game style better than college cuz he can play the 4 in the nba

Not Pelinka's fault, the truth of the matter is that NO ONE of any consequence wants to play with LeBron or in the Circus Side Show the Lakers, (because of LeBron), have become.

[@fantasysportsanalysistfsa8938]

@@jameschan9634 That's a lie. Lebron is well loved and respected by other NBA players, but they are not coming to work for the veteran minimum. To get a player like Demar or Jimmy Butler. We would have to trade players like Dlo and Reeves just to fit them under the salary restrictions. Most teams don't want them players. Also their's players that don't want to be the 3rd option. A lot goes into landing a player, to blame it on Lebron is asinine and straight-up hating.
