Newest Laker Gabe Vincent Spotted Courtside at LA’s 1st Summer League Game vs Miami

Really cool to see the new signing supporting the team!

The biggest signing of the Lakers free agency so far is probably former Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent. Vincent agreed to a three-year deal that is worth $33 million with the Lakers after helping lead the Heat to the NBA Finals last season. So on the opening day of NBA Summer League, Vincent was spotted watching his old team take on his new team.

It's probably a little weird for Vincent because who exactly is he rooting for? A few days ago he wasn't a member of the Lakers but now, Los Angeles is who is writing his checks. It's a good problem to have if you are Vincent but it's also a cool thing that Vincent pulled up to support the teams. It wasn't long ago that Vincent himself was playing in the Summer League.

Vincent averaged 9.4 points per game shot 33.4 percent from three-point land for the Heat last season. However it was on the run to the NBA Finals that helped Vincent get his big new contract. As the lights got brighter, Vincent got better. In the playoffs, he upped his averages to 12.7 points and shot 37.8 percent from deep. It was an impressive showing for Vincent and helped him land the bag. '

Miami tried to keep Vincent but ultimately wouldn't go above a certain price point to keep him. LA landed him and they are very happy to have him with the team as they go for banner 18 next season!
