Talen Horton-Tucker is the answer to the Lakers’ questions

Don’t let his baby face fool you. This kid’s already a killer.

At 6’3, I am taller than most of the other NARPs that I interact with. When I stood next to Horton-Tucker before the Lakers played the Bulls this past Monday, I was surprised to find my eyes tilt upwards to match his own, despite his arms extending far below where mine end. At 6’4 with a 7’1 wingspan, Horton-Tucker shares similar dimensions to a flattened Violet Beauregarde, but with a superior crossover.

Already, in just his first three games this season, THT’s put that big body to use, changing the way the Lakers play basketball.
