Live Bar, June 28th news the Lakers held a rookie meeting for sefino and Lewis today. At the meeting, the two talked about their feelings of joining the Lakers.
Sifino said: “I am usually a very calm person, but on the draft night, I feel the same as a roller coaster. Obviously, you don’t know which team you will be selected. I remember sitting in front of the table and receiving the phone call. Then the first thing I thought of was Kobe. After all, I am a Kobe fan. I thought to myself, I must be dreaming. I didn’t even have any emotions. I couldn’t cry or speak. I couldn’t hear everything around me. It’s all like this. God, I really want to be a Lakers player. This feeling is fantastic, and I am very grateful.”
Lewis said of the feeling of being selected by the Lakers: “On the day of the draft, I remember that my name appeared on the same screen as the Lakers and felt very dreamy. My father is from Inglewood, California. Many people in my family come from Las Vegas and are Lakers fans. In addition, the history of the Lakers, Kobe, too many elements related to the Lakers, are fantastic. I am very grateful to be in this team.”
