Frankie King’s Lakers jersey history chapter spotlights a brief but telling NBA stop. King, who climbed from College of Coastal Georgia to Western Carolina, was a 1995 second‑round pick who appeared in six games for the Lakers in 1995-96, averaging 1.2 points in 3.3 minutes. A 10‑day stint with the Philadelphia 76ers followed before a long European career, illustrating how even short NBA cameos become part of a franchise’s enduring jersey lineage.
From a fantasy lens, this tale underscores the value of late round bets and the global pathways players ride after brief NBA opportunities. Though not fantasy gold, King’s arc adds color to the Lakers' long runway of talent and the rich history behind No. 4 on a franchise that has fielded hundreds of players since its Minneapolis days.
