I truly did not understand the contract the Lakers gave Stephenson last summer. Not only from a basketball-fit perspective, but that they gave him $4.5 million, when he appeared to be a minimum-level player at this point in his career.

 

While Stephenson will have his moments of hot shooting and flair, he hasn't done anything to prove me wrong. We'll see if Stephenson and his agent can prove me wrong again, as I'm predicting him to settle for a minimum contract this summer.
