NBA DRAFT 2016June 23, 2016Ivica ZubacBrooklyn, New York THE MODERATOR: If you could start out with an opening statement, feelings about being picked by the Lakers and what you bring to the team. IVICA ZUBAC: I'm really surprised. I didn't hope for this, but this is the best possible option. I think I can bring my low-post play to the Lakers, and I think I can help them in the paint and protecting the paint and grabbing rebounds, and I think that will help them. Q. What do you think is going to be your biggest adjustment? And what do you feel is going to be -- how do you feel that such a prestigious organization drafted you and thinks so highly of you? IVICA ZUBAC: From the day I started playing basketball, the Lakers were my favorite team, and Kobe was my favorite player. I cannot believe this is happening. I'm so happy right now. Q. Does it hurt a little bit knowing you won't be able to team with Kobe since he's retired? IVICA ZUBAC: Yeah, before this draft I was thinking like I'm coming to the league and Kobe is going out. I won't be able to play against him or with him. But I will be on the Lakers, so I think I will meet him. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
