With the NBA draft rapidly approaching, rumors and speculation are running rampant. There has been endless talk about who the Lakers will take with the no. 2 overall pick, as well as talk about whether that pick will be used to obtain an all star caliber player like say, for example, DeMarcus Cousins.
But what about the Lakers 27th overall pick? For every mock draft you look at, you will likely see a different player that the Lakers are predicted to take with that pick. This is because of the impossibility of predicting what occurs with the 26 picks preceding it.
