Antawn Jamison will be Pau Gasol's backup
Antawn Jamison - F - Los Angeles Lakers

Antawn Jamison will be the primary backup power forward behind Pau Gasol (foot) now that Gasol is healthy.
Jamison will still play a role on the Lakers, especially since he's made his way out of Mike D'Antoni's dog house to prove he's a valuable stretch four. Gasol isn't expected to play heavy minutes initially as he works on his conditioning, and there is still room for Jamison to contribute in deeper leagues, but his production will be much more inconsistent than it had been with Gasol out.
