Lakers player season grades: Talen Horton-Tucker

After getting some spot duty and showing potential in the Walt Disney World Resort bubble as a rookie in 2020, Los Angeles Lakers guard Talen Horton-Tucker became a part of then-head coach Frank Vogel’s rotation last season.

After averaging 9.0 points and 2.8 assists in 20.1 minutes per game while shooting a solid 45.8% from the field, it appeared he had the potential to eventually become a very good player.

The Lakers signed him to a three-year contract worth about $30 million last offseason, and great things were expected of him this year.

Perhaps Horton-Tucker didn’t quite measure up, but he still has the potential to become the player fans envisioned a year or two ago.
