It's actually insane how productive he is, considering the Lakers got him for Gabe Vincent and a 2nd round pick.

  1. NUKE KENNARD! I still remember him dropping 30 in that 35-pt comeback playing for the hospital Clippers. Came with a 4-pt play game winner too. What a stud.

  2. Spoiler for the first 20 seconds of First Things First on Monday:

    Kevin Wildes: “Kennard went Lukeclear on Saturday against the Rockets scoring 27 points with a perfect 5 for 5 from three”

  3. 91% FT shooter with FT being his lowest % tonight…but only cause everything else was amazing

  4. No way should your young core full of high lottery picks be getting completely and collectively out played by a dude traded for a 2032 second round pick

  5. People were dooming after the acquisition. “He wont shoot”, “lakers fan gonna hate this guy” lol.

    Its literally Cardi G for this dude thats already a positive

  6. JJ really only guy that would believe and trust in Luke to do this

    IDK how his trade value was so low

  7. Lakers elite at turning every white boy into a star*

    *Unless your name is Dalton Knecht

  8. They turned Gabe’s 30m 0 points into this 9/13 big dick killer what a move. The Lakers haven’t been making enough trades but the ones they made solid.

  9. If Luke Kennard is going to shoot like Ray Allen the rest of this series the Rockets are toast lol

  10. Makes me so happy seeing my boy play good even if he was on the Lakers of all teams.

  11. I thought lakers would struggle more than this BUT I also didn’t expect KD to miss a game of this series so…if KD misses time rockets are in trouble. Even if KD comes back this series is going to be much more competitive than I thought.

    Also Ayton actually played good. Keep it up dominayton

  12. What impresses me is how he is just a good all around player. Can handle the ball, makes good decisions, and at least tries on defense. He is very much a winning player. The shooting being elite is the huge cherry on top.

  13. Best role player acquisition in YEARS!! They must retain him at all cost this offseason, they cannot let a player this good walk.

  14. PSA: the Hawks traded Luke for Gabe to generate a $11 million Trade Exception (TPE).

    Because the Hawks took on Gabe salary using a pre-existing trade exception, Kennard’s entire outgoing salary was used to “spawn” a brand-new exception. Which expires February 2027.

    Hawk did not trade Luke for Gabe or a 2nd round pick lol. They wanted the TPE.

  15. few people will ever be as unstoppable as a sold white role player on a lebron james playoff team
