The Lakers added their 13th player last week, signing rookie guard Jordan Clarkson to a two-year contract.

Clarkson agreed to a two-year, minimum deal for a total of $1.4 million, with the first season fully guaranteed.

The team is still looking to add to the roster, auditioning forward Michael Beasley for a second time, along with a number of available free agents.

Meanwhile, the D-Fenders hired Phil Hubbard to coach the Lakers’ D-League affiliate.

Former Laker Darius Morris, recently signed to a training camp contract with the Portland Trail Blazers, called Kobe Bryant “one of the best” teammates he’s ever had.
