St. Mary's point guard Augustus Matthew Leonis is about to sign an Exhibit 10 training camp contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, according to Jonathan Givony.
He missed a pre-draft trial due to a foot injury but is expected to recover in late July.
Matthew Leonis averaged 14 points and 6 assists per game in his senior season, and was selected as the WCC Player of the Year two times and was selected into the West Coast League’s All-Squad.
His father is Sarunas Matthew Leonis, a former professional basketball player in Lithuania. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest international players and one of the first European players to enter the NBA. Maculionis was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2014 and the International Basketball Hall of Fame in 2015. He also brought the "European Step" to the NBA.
