Options picked up for Bynum and Farmar

The Los Angeles Lakers have exercised a fourth-year contract option on Andrew Bynum, and picked up the third-year contract option on Jordan Farmar. Bynum was selected 10th in the 2005 NBA draft. His career stats as a Laker are 5.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.17 blocks in his first two seasons as a Lakers. Bynum has stated that this year will be his breakout year and I’m sure Lakers fans hope he does breakout. Jordan Farmar in his rookie season saw a good amount of playing time especially in the playoffs where he averaged 6.4 points, 1.6 assists and 2.8 rebounds against the Phoenix Suns. I believe that these two players will be the future for the Lakers and from the things I’ve seen I’m excited about that.
