The D-Fenders held their annual media day on Tuesday in preparation for the 2015-16 season, which will open Friday night in Reno against the Bighorns.
This year's squad features five former Lakers, including guards Manny Harris and Vander Blue, who were midseason call-ups by the Lakers; and center Robert Upshaw and guard Michael Frazier, who both went through the preseason with the team last month.
The fifth is forward Malcolm Thomas, who briefly went through training camp with the Lakers in the lockout-shortened preseason of 2011. He has since played for five NBA teams, including 17 games with the Philadelphia 76ers last year.
