Quick query: Who is the Lakers' only true point guard?
Not Jordan Clarkson. He's a converted shooting guard.
Not D'Angelo Russell. Much more of a shooter than passer at Ohio State.
Lou Williams? Please. A shooting guard stuck in a point guard's body.
Marcelo Huertas will make the Lakers' final roster because he's their only pure point guard. He has never played an NBA regular-season game, declining millions of euros in salary to sign a $525,000 nonguaranteed contract with the Lakers, but he has already made a slew of smooth passes.
Huertas has 14 assists in 31 exhibition minutes and plenty of fans among teammates.
