Ducks' Explosive G/F with Pro Pedigree Now Dominating G League
LJ Figueroa, the 4-star Oregon Ducks standout (No. 14 SF nationally, 247Sports), erupted for a career-high 31 PTS & 10 REB in a recent G League clash, powering South Bay Lakers to a 133-115 win—averaging 12.6 PTS & 4.0 REB career in G League. His elite JUCO roots (21.4 PPG, 48.2% 3PT at Odessa) and college scoring punch (12.3 PPG in 2020-21) highlight a versatile, high-motor wing with sharpshooting and rebounding grit; post-Oregon, he's NBA-ready depth for Lakers—perfect fit for teams craving instant-impact athleticism without the hype.
