Lakers have added Moses Brown and Trent Forrest to summer league roster

The Los Angeles Lakers’ summer league team hasn’t gotten off to a good start. It lost all three of its games in the California Classic after some inconsistent play at both ends of the floor, and it will now head to Las Vegas for the main summer league, which will start on Friday.

Despite the losses, a couple of the Lakers’ players, including Dalton Knecht, Colin Castleton and Maxwell Lewis, have shown flashes of promise.

On Thursday, the team added two new players to evaluate in Las Vegas: center Moses Brown from the University of California, Los Angeles and guard Trent Forrest from Florida State University.

Brown, a New York City native who is 7-foot-2 and 258 pounds, has spent five seasons in the NBA and has career averages of 5.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 0.6 blocked shots in 11.9 minutes a game. He has gone back and forth at times between the NBA and the G League, and the last NBA team he played for was the Portland Trail Blazers this past season.

In his four NBA seasons, Forrest has averaged 2.8 points, 1.9 assists and 1.5 rebounds in 11.6 minutes a game while shooting 18.5% from 3-point range.

Both players went undrafted out of college.
