The Los Angeles Lakers have been doing their due diligence on all of their later options in the 2017 NBA Draft, but thus far the team has yet to work out any players they might realistically select with the second overall pick.
That won't change this week, as Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports that the Lakers are still "finalizing" when their workouts with top prospects will take place.
The Boston Celtics are widely projected to select Markelle Fultz with the top pick in the draft, and the Lakers are reportedly still deciding between Josh Jackson, De'Aaron Fox and Lonzo Ball with their choice.
Individual workouts would seem to be less valuable than a players entire body of work heading into the draft, but perhaps if things are close between Ball, Jackson and Fox in the Lakers eyes these individual workouts could be tiebreakers. It sounds like the team could start sorting that out as soon as next week.
Here is an updating list of every player the Lakers have worked out or met with. Harrison Faigen is co-host of the Locked on Lakers podcast (subscribe here), and you can follow him on Twitter at @hmfaigen.
