Luol Deng, Los Angeles Lakers, small forward, #14

Luol Deng left the Miami Heat and became a part of the Lake Show. One problem: the Lakers are loaded with talent. Deng is one of their veteran players on the roster.

Currently, he averages 6.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game. His best game thus far was against the Utah Jazz. Despite the Lakers losing to the Jazz 96-89, Deng finished the game with 12 points, 12 rebounds, two steals and one block.
