The Los Angeles Lakers sign Steve Blake
The Lakers have signed 30-year old point guard Steve Blake to a 4-year, $16 million dollar deal. Blake played in 80 games (38 starts) for the Clippers & Trailblazers last season in which he averaged 27.0 minutes, 7.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game. He has now played in 499 games (299 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 25.7 minutes, 7.5 points, 2.1 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. Blake is a good shooter as he is a career 39.3% shooter from three point range. Blake will either be replacing Derek Fisher as the starting point guard or Jordan Farmar as the backup depending if one of them re-sign with the Lakers. This was a very good signing for the Lakers as Blake is a pretty good basketball player.
