Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is partially responsible for one of the greatest Rob Pelinka quotes of all time, which is high praise considering he once compared Lonzo Ball to Steve Jobs, and the Lakers to Taylor Swift.
During Caldwell-Pope’s introductory press conference in 2017, Pelinka famously suggested that the Caldwell-Pope was God’s gift to the Lakers.
“I would venture to guess that there are people in the room that are familiar with the stories in the book of Genesis, where there was a time when the Israelites were wandering the desert and, all of a sudden, bread came down from heaven,” Pelinka said.
