“Waive JHS”: Fans Urge Rob Pelinka To Bring Back Lakers Hero After Celtics’ Blunder
Rob Pelinka may have a golden chance to fix his roster. This is because his former hooper, Lonnie Walker IV is most unlikely to open the season for the Boston Celtics. Well, this might come as a shock for many, but the C’s have waived their preseason hero. Following the end of the Exhibit 10 contract, the ex-Lakers playmaker unfortunately missed out on making it to the roster, leaving him as a free agent.
ESPN’s Senior NBA insider, Shams Charania reported the news, which is now making shockwaves in the basketball world. Well, fans were expecting “better” from the Celtics because Lonnie’s performance for them had been brilliant. Pelinka’s former guard averaged 9.7 PPG in the Preseason for the reigning champs. This result is pretty good for a five-game slate.

And now that Walker finds himself out of a roster, the Lakers might have a chance to bring him back. The 26YO has been a hero for Rob Pelinka’s team during his stint with the Purple and Gold. Therefore, fans are putting forth their demands to replace a certain player with a perfect choice like Lonnie Walker IV. In reality, this might be THE moment for the Lakers front office to fix the loophole. So, will they do it?
