Entertainment mogul Ice Cube is in NYC promoting his new BIG3 league which we have covered extensively. TMZ Sports caught up with Cube coming out of a meeting and asked his thoughts on the Lakers. Cube, an LA native and die hard Lakers fan didn’t pull any punches.
When the subject of tanking for a better draft pick came up, Cube was against the idea wholeheartedly. He said the Lakers need to work with D’Angelo Russell and give him a chance to be the star he is supposed to be. When told tanking could mean a chance at heralded UCLA freshman Lonzo Ball, Cube said the Lakers need to run it back with Russell.
