You're lucky because the Lakers were looking at him too and in fact the Lakers considered trading the second pick for two lower picks, but couldn't get a bite. Josh Jackson will help Arizona in many ways
Lakers didn't like his workout. They wanted Ball since day 1, despite any smoke otherwise. The attempt to trade for 5 and 10 was all about trying to get the George trade done. Trading down to 5 to get Jackson wouldn't have worked too well, would it?
