Lakers Sign Drew Timme to Two-Way Deal, Waive Christian Koloko

The move reinforces L.A.’s frontcourt depth after Deandre Ayton sustained a knee contusion.

Overview

  • Timme joins from the South Bay Lakers on a two-way contract after averaging roughly 25.5 points, about eight rebounds and four assists in the G League.
  • To open the two-way slot, Los Angeles waived Christian Koloko, who logged 39 appearances across two seasons with modest production.
  • Reports differ on two-way availability, with outlets citing either a 40- or 50-game cap, and a standard deal would be required for any postseason role.
  • The 25-year-old is Gonzaga’s all-time leading scorer and a two-time West Coast Conference Player of the Year.
  • Timme closed last season with the Nets, averaging 12.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists across nine games.
