It's too bad Cedric Bozeman (of UCLA) wasn't invited to summer league...Lakers said they liked him and he's a triangle type player. Oh well, Michael Fey is there, and though he was injured for most of last season, he was a very solid big when he peaked with UCLA...PeACe.

The Lakers' Bynum again expected to pack the gym.
By ADAM MAYA
The Orange County Register
Capacity crowds watched Andrew Bynum play in the Summer Pro League last year.
Andrew Bynum arrived at The Walter Pyramid in Long Beach a year ago to a maximum capacity crowd, with hundreds denied at the door. More than 5,000 people came to see the youngest player in NBA history in his first Summer Pro league game.
And he had no idea.
"I didn't know that until after," Bynum said. "I thought it was always like that."
Bynum, at 18 still the youngest player in the league, said he expects to see the same type of crowd at the Lakers summer-league opener today. Given how little he played last season Bynum doesn't think his novelty has worn off.
For the past two months he has committed himself to showing everyone how much he has progressed. Instead of returning home to New York, Bynum was at the Lakers training facility in El Segundo every day working out.
"I think he's made tremendous strides," Lakers assistant coach Kurt Rambis said. "He's been here every day over the summer, lifting weights. You can see his body has changed. He's definitely more mature."
