2019 Player Capsule: Isaac Bonga

Season Summary
The league’s youngest player got his first taste of NBA life.

As expected, Isaac Bonga primarily played his rookie season in the G League, where he averaged 11.9 points and 6.2 rebounds for the South Bay Lakers.

The NBA was another matter, as he averaged 5.5 minutes and shot just 5-of-33 from the field.

With a player so young, that kind of turbulence is to be expected. But he certainly showed his potential — and intriguing skill set — with South Bay.

Standing at 6-foot-8 and armed with a 7-foot wingpsan, Bonga has elite length, which is a premium in the moaner NBA.
