Alex Fudge enters his rookie season as a two-way player with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 6-foot-9 forward enters the NBA after two years at the collegiate level, where he represented the University of Florida and Louisana State University.
The Lakers have a solid track record of finding and developing undrafted talent into valuable role players.
