Lakers officially sign Mac McClung to roster

The Los Angeles Lakers announced the signing of Mac McClung on Tuesday.

McClung, who went undrafted in the 2021 NBA draft, signed a training camp deal with the Lakers and was set to play a key role on Los Angeles’ summer league team.

McClung, who recently played collegiate ball at Texas Tech, has participated in both the California Classic in Sacramento and the Las Vegas Summer League.

Against the Phoenix Suns in Game 1 of the Las Vegas tournament, McClung hit a clutch mid-range bucket to tie the game in the final seconds before Austin Reaves banked in the game-winner.

The Lakers also signed Chaundee Brown, who was initially on an Exhibit 10 deal, to the main roster, so they have 14 spots on their 15-man squad filled. Teams can have up to 20 players until the regular season start date nears but must trim the roster down to 15 before the new season tips off.
