Cameron Carr won't attend Luka Doncic's Lakers minicamp

Lakers rookie Cameron Carr won't be going to Luka Doncic's minicamp — but for a good reason.

Luka Doncic is set to host a minicamp for his Los Angeles Lakers teammates in Slovenia, reportedly covering the expenses for his team to attend. However, rookie guard Cameron Carr, the No. 24 draft pick, will not be attending the event. NBA insider Marc Stein revealed that Doncic will charter a plane and pay the full bill for all 16 players on the roster, excluding Carr, who must participate in an official NBA orientation for new players.

Carr, drafted by the Lakers in June, averaged 18.9 points and 5.8 rebounds during his freshman season at Baylor University. Standing at 6-foot-5 with a wingspan of over seven feet, he has impressed with his athleticism and three-point shooting. Projections for his professional career suggest he could be a high-level three-point specialist or even an All-Star after a few years.
