Trey Jemison III · Factoring in trades both successful and unsuccessful, the Los Angeles Lakers left the NBA’s 2025 trade deadline with starpower and intrigue, but also a pressing question: who among their frontcourt would rise to the occasion? On February 4, 2025, Trey Jemison III used his 6-foot-11 frame and penchant for around-the-rim play to make his case. Ahead by 27, and knowing victory to be all but secured, Jemison and the Lakers’ reserves put positive play on film, working a series of screens and cuts to leave the L.A. Clippers’ defense overwhelmed. Reunited alongside a celebrated South Bay Laker teammate on the G League circuit, Jemison tests the chemistry in a regular-season setting, using a well-timed cut to set up a forceful one-handed flush. Something of a good luck charm, given the Lakers’ 9-0 record in games he plays in, Jemison used a five-minute cameo to record a two-point, four-rebound, one-steal tally. · State of Mint
