I've been keeping up with him ever since we got him and from the games i see.... his on ball defense is decent because of his athleticism but his TEAM defense when it comes to rotating and switching is abysmal.... He can definitely put the ball in the hoop and knock down shots every now and then but his floor spacing is kind of bad ... I think if he finishes up these games in the D League this year and has A FULL training camp in the off season i think he'll be ready to come off the bench next season
We should call up Christian Eyenga NEXT season

Ebanks is a cancer and he's lazy. There is a reason why he lost his starting job and now rarely plays any mins. He will probably be gone next season.

THANK YOU!!!.... Had all the opportunity in the world and did nothing with it but play passive instead of aggressive and had all last year to improve his jump shooting to be ready for this season

people ebanks is only a rookie. he lost the starting position because he still adapting to the nba. The fact that brown gave him a chance to start shows that ebanks does have alot of potential. He just need consistent minutes.

Christian Eyenga is one major athlete that does have potential. He does struggle to shoot the ball though at times. Even though if he got called up, I doubt Brown would play him. If there is one person on this team that needs playing, that will be Goudelock.

There will be better options, Eyenga is absolutely nothing special, or a player worthy of heavy rotation minutes for the Lakers. He was a away to make the Sessions deal work, nothing more, nothing less. You're judging Eyenga's ability to play on an NBA level by this mediocre and sporadic play on the D-League level. Not the ideal way to assess a player.
P.S. - Ebanks is not a rookie. It's his second year.

Well Ebanks had a great 1st playoff game. And also if yu remember ariza did the same thing. Started playing more in the post season and really started showing his true potential. I really hope he keeps it up. Love his jumper and if he stay aggresive he will be great. Its really just his defense that needs help.

I have been totally taken aback by Ebanks. He has shown far more than I thought he had. Let's see if he stays consistent with it. It was only one game. You are what you consistently do. I hope he keeps the drive up!

We've seen what Ebanks can do on Durant. I like that.
