EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) The Los Angeles Lakers have signed first-round draft picks Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma and Josh Hart.
The Lakers formalized the deals Monday.
Ball is expected to make $33.4 million over four years in his contract slot as the second overall pick. The Lakers didn’t announce the terms of the deal.
Magic Johnson called Ball ”the new face of the Lakers” at his introductory news conference last month. Ball led the nation in assists during his only season at UCLA.
Kuzma is a power forward chosen with the 27th overall selection. The Lakers acquired the pick in a draft-night trade with Brooklyn.
