Lakers News: Watch Scotty Pippen Jr Flash Two-Way Excellence With South Bay /

Vanderbilt product and South Bay Lakers affiliate player Scotty Pippen Jr. has been putting on a show in the G League. 

The son of Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen is averaging 18 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 5.7 assists while shooting 48% from the field and 37% from behind the arc. 

Here's a look at one of his top plays from Sunday: 

The younger Pippen has been a big-time contributor since the moment he arrived in South Bay, as he put up 21 points per game last season.  

He's become more well-rounded and efficient this year, indicating his development as a player. This is a good sign when it comes to potentially joining the Los Angeles Lakers proper, or another NBA organization in the near future. 

The 6'1" combo guard is a key cog in what was the third-ranked G League team last year (by net rating), so expect him and the team to continue their high level of play entering this year.
