The uncertainties loom on where his draft order ends up. But whether Michael Frazier lands in the second round or climbs up to first, the Florida junior shooting guard made one unsolicited promise to any NBA team considering him.

“I’m the best shooter in this draft,” Frazier said last week after working out with the Lakers at their practice facility in El Segundo. “Whoever takes me is the best shooter in the draft. I’ve shown that in the past few years of my career. So the numbers speak for itself.”

Frazier shot 43.2 percent from 3-point range through three seasons in Florida, something he attributed to making between 500 to 600 shots per day. He also credited working out in recent summers with former Gators and Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal, who has shot 40 percent from 3-point range through three NBA seasons. Such a skill could help the Lakers, which ranked 17th out of 30 NBA teams last season with a 34.4 percent mark from the outside.

Yet, Frazier’s outside shooting numbers actually went from 44.5 percent his sophomore season to a 38 percent his junior year. That coincided with Frazier spraining his right ankle on Feb. 7, which sidelined him for seven games before returning for the last three contests of the season.

Frazier still sounded confident his strong outside shooting could carry over into the NBA after showing marked improvement his freshman season (5.6 points on 35.7 percent shooting in 17.9 minutes) to his sophomore year (12.4 points on 50.6 percent shooting in 30.5 minutes).

“I stayed in the gym. I was able to get a bigger opportunity and play a bigger role,” Frazier said. “That’s why my minutes jumped. That whole summer, I was in the gym working my tail off. I knew I would have the opportunity to increase my minutes. I wanted to make the most of it. So that’s what I did.”

Frazier also argued he could make the most of any NBA opportunity in other ways, He touted his athleticism and 6-3, 199-pound frame as proof he can defend both point guards, shooting guards and small forwards. If the Lakers drafted him with their 27th or 34th picks in the NBA Draft on June 25, Frazier predicted he would thrive under Kobe Bryant’s demanding leadership style.

“It would be a great opportunity if I’m lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with him,” Frazier said. “He demands a lot. I definitely respond to that well because I’m a self starter and self motivator so that wouldn’t be a problem for me.”

It would not be a problem for Bryant, either, so long as Frazier backs up his words with actions.
