One media outlet has the Los Angeles Lakers selecting former Illini guard Terrence Shannon at No. 17 in NBA draft
Terrence Shannon could go from being one of the best players in Illinois Fighting Illini history to teaming with the "King" of the NBA.
While speaking on The Field of 68 podcast, college basketball analyst Jeff Goodman said the Lakers and Shannon are a perfect match. In fact, James was one of the first to come to Shannon's defense after the acquittal. Many felt Shannon was wrongly accused for a crime that caused him to miss six regular season games and led to much scrutiny during the draft process.
