The Official Los Angeles Lakers thread
Antonio:
The LA Lakers signed free agent combo guard Brandon Heath(1.90-G) who played last season for Orleans in the ProA league in France. The deal was announced by the Lakers official site.
Brandon Heath played for 4 seasons in San Diego State in the NCAA where he graduated in 2006-2007 with impressive figures of almost 20 points per game. Most recently, Heath played for the Los Angeles Clippers 2008 Summer-Pro League team in Las Vegas, averaging 5.6 points and 1.0 rebounds in five games played and it seems that it was enough to get him a contract in the magic world of the NBA.
Last season he averaged 12 points 2.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 25 games in the ProA. Heath is a very athletic guard that can do many things in the court apart from scoring.

Lakers sign C.J. Giles
Sep 12, 5:20 pm EDT
INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA (TICKER) —The Los Angeles Lakers signed forward C.J. Giles on Friday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The 6-11, 240-pound Giles, who played two seasons with the Kansas Jayhawks before transferring to Oregon State, appeared in 10 games for the Beavers last season before being dismissed from the team in late January. He averaged 6.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game at Oregon State.
He had a history of behavioral issues at both schools, which led to his dismissal from Kansas and once caused him to be benched at Oregon State for a pattern of showing up late to practice.
Giles possesses excellent physical attributes for an NBA big man, starting with a 7'4" wingspan and an excellent frame which he has clearly worked on over the course of his college career. He has a picture perfect body for an NBA center, and the bulk he added during his two years at Kansas has not affected his athleticism one bit. When motivated, Giles runs the court like a guard, which led to some easy baskets for the Jay hawks two seasons ago.
