• LaRavia joined Los Angeles on a two-year deal and is being used as a bench wing with 3-point spacing and perimeter defense.
• Through two preseason games, the Lakers have sat many regulars and lost to the Suns and Warriors while sorting lineups.
• In his second outing, LaRavia posted 10 points on 5-of-10 shooting with three assists and a steal in 20 minutes after a 7-point, 5-rebound debut.
• He says he already feels comfortable in his role, toggling between on-ball duties and off-ball spacing alongside stars.
