Lakers add former UCLA, USC players to training camp roster

A pair of former local college stars will join the Lakers in training camp.

Former UCLA forward Travis Wear and former USC guard Julian Jacobs will join the Lakers when they open the season on Sept. 27 at training camp in Santa Barbara.

Wear, who attended Mater Dei High, played at UCLA from 2011-14 and last appeared in the NBA as a rookie with the New York Knicks in the 2014-15 season, averaging 3.9 points and 2.1 rebounds in 51 games.

Jacobs, from Las Vegas, went undrafted after leaving USC following his junior year.
