Gilbert Arenas slams Lakers over Jake LaRavia signing

When the Los Angeles Lakers signed Jake LaRavia in free agency, their first offseason move, it had many people scratching their heads.

Former NBA player, Gilbert Arenas, is one of those people who is scratching his head. To him, the signing of LaRavia doesn’t make sense.

“Never in my life have I ever seen a bench player be signed so fast during free agency,” Arenas said. “So this is what we doing now, Lakers? Signing Jake from All-State. The nerve of this post saying ‘Breaking News.’

“Breaking news is if we sign [Jonathan] Kuminga, that’s breaking news,” Arenas stated. “If we sign [Deandre] Ayton, who just hit the market? Breaking news. If we stole Myles Turner from Indiana? Breaking news.

“[LaRavia] who averaged six points last year, that ain’t breaking news,” Arenas continued. “You a damn fool. We could have gotten him the last day, right before training camp. You could had him try out. He averaged six points. We could have had him try the f*** out to see if he can make the team.

“You could have put [LaRavia] with Bronny [James],” Arenas added. “Put him in the Summer League with Bronny, s*** he probably wouldn’t make that. God damn it.”
