The young Lakers have disappointed in the first game of the Summer Classics vs. the Miami Heat and started to wonder about the 2023 NBA Draft picks

The Los Angeles Lakers team for the 2023 Summer League debuted in the first game of the Summer Classics vs. the Miami Heat, and the fans were left disappointed after the hype they had with the 2023 NBA Draft picks of the team.

A lot of expectation was set on Jalen Hood-Schifino and Maxwell Lewis' debut, along with the young talented Max Christie, Cole Swider, Hodge, and Castleton.

They were disappointed, even when is their first game together, and they needed more time and games; the highlight was Christie, but as a whole, the team had a poor shooting performance, which worried the fans.

The Lakers Nation thinks they are glad they retained D'Angelo Russell, as we don't have to rely on any of these young guys to be in the rotation. And are also wishing Pelinka have kept either Lonnie Walker or Malik Beasley.

The fans have lost faith in Jalen Hood-Schifino

After just one game, the Lakers fans have lost faith in the team's draft pick, but it is still too early to judge the 19-year-old player; we need to give him time to develop.
