Dion Waiters

SG, Los Angeles Lakers

In a loss to the Kings on Thursday, Dion Waiters poured in 19 points on 8-of-15 shooting with three rebounds, five assists and three treys in 25 minutes.

Waiters didn't handle the ball well, coughing it up five times in the game. Otherwise, he had a really impressive night shooting the ball. The Lakers will be looking for Waiters to be able to knock down shots off the bench once the postseason rolls around. He is one of the only players on the bench who can create a shot for himself and that will be valuable come next week. JR Smith also saw 25 minutes off the bench and gave his team 11 points, one rebound, two assists, one steal, one 3-pointer and one turnover.
