But at least it seems like a new addition to the front office. As Ewing himself announced on Twitter, the Lakers reportedly brought in former Duke star Daniel Ewing as a scout.

Drafted by the Clippers in 2005, Ewing is no stranger to professional basketball in Los Angeles. I ended up losing in double overtime. Let’s be honest, Lakers fans Phoenix Suns Especially the late-game three in 2006.

After two years with the Clippers, Ewing was fired and headed overseas, playing 12 seasons in Russia, Poland, Ukraine, Turkey, France, Lithuania, Israel, Argentina and Romania. Interestingly, the Lakers have had no real international presence on their roster in recent seasons. Even players like Marc Gasol and Dennis Schrader had him established in the NBA before arriving in Los Angeles.
