The Lakers may punish Ebanks as a team for his antics and this is not something the franchise wants to see from one of its players. Driving while intoxicated is very dangerous and the night could have ended very badly for Ebanks.
The young forward is trying to develop himself as a basketball player, but half of the battle is acting professionally off the court.
