The Lakers continue to make moves this offseason. It was reported on Monday that the team was signing Christian Koloko and Chris Mañon to two-way deals, and now they are waiving Trey Jemison III.

Jemison was signed onto a two-way deal last season and played in 22 games for the Lakers. He averaged 2.6 points and 2.8 rebounds for Los Angeles.
Jemison didn’t have many standout games or show much explosiveness on either side of
the ball. What he did provide was a player who could be depended on to make the right play and be a sort of defenisve enforcer.
Jemison always gave a total effort and never backed down from a challenge. These are good attributes to have, but his upside just wasn’t enough for the team to commit another two-way deal for the big.
This live story will be updated as more information becomes available.
