According to Lakers.com, the Los Angeles Lakers have waived Joe Crawford and CJ Giles “The Los Angeles Lakers have requested waivers on guard Joe Crawford and forward CJ Giles, it was announced today. Selected by the Lakers with the 58th pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, Crawford, a 22 year-old native of Detroit, Michigan, played four seasons at the University of Kentucky, averaging 11.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 127 games (76 starts).

I think he has all the other tools. Maybe some other team will pick him up and give him a shot. Posts: 10450 | From: Erlanger, Ky.

The Lakers had a deep bench last year so maybe he can play for Oklahoma or someone without the same talent base. -------------------- Posts: 9407 | From: Indiana | Registered: Apr 2002  |  IP: Logged
