The Lakers are trying to assemble a strong roster around 39-year-old LeBron James and Anthony Davis, and as the trade deadline of February 8 draws near, there are always speculations around them.
The Lakers’ 21-21 record makes it evident that the two need additional assistance, but LeBron just wants to concentrate on the players that are currently on the court with him.
Following LA’s 127-110 victory over Dallas, James said to reporters, “I don’t play fantasy basketball.” “I get up to work every day and concentrate on the guys who wear this outfit here. To be considering what we lack or what we need is too insulting. That’s not how I treat my teammates. We have been working hard, and we must keep working hard at it. We’ve been having fun playing the previous several games. We had to carry on that Friday against Brooklyn.
James said to reporters following LA’s 127-110 victory over Dallas, “I don’t play fantasy basketball.”My first thoughts upon arriving at work each morning are of the guys dressed like this. Thinking about what we don’t need or have is too offensive. That’s not how I treat my teammates. We have been exerting a great deal of work, therefore we must continue. We’ve been having fun playing the games lately. We had to continue playing Brooklyn that Friday.
“I believe that the rotations have been quite effective because Coach [Darvin Ham] is aware of who is and is not playing,” LeBron remarked. As a result, he is able to clock minutes with lineups that players are attempting to become accustomed to. That, in my opinion, is really helpful when our second crew arrive because they are prepared to work right away. Big minutes have been coming from Max [Christie]. We’ve been getting significant minutes from C-Wood. Our huge minutes are coming from Rui [Hachimura]. That will be necessary for us, so if they can keep doing that, it would be really beneficial to our squad.
LeBron James has always expressed a desire to play in the NBA with his son Bronny, but his future in Los Angeles is now in doubt with the most recent information provided by NBA source Shams Charania.
“I’ve spoken to people in the league, and [Bronny] is listed on several clubs’ draft boards. What if he gets selected somewhere other than Los Angeles? This summer, LeBron James will have a player option.
After the Lakers defeated the Mavs 127-110 on Wednesday, LeBron hurried back to the locker room to see Bronny play in his collegiate game.
In USC’s 82-67 defeat to Arizona, the rookie hit his first three shots while Kevin Durant was observing from the front row.
After going into cardiac arrest in July, Bronny has only played in ten games. During the game, he finished with 11 points on 5-11 shooting, six assists, five rebounds, a block, and five turnovers.
“I spoke with NBA people, and they know he’s much more advanced defensively than offensively,” Charania said.
Bronny was regarded as a surefire first-round pick before to his cardiac problems, but he is now, at best, a late first-round selection.
According to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, teams like the Miami Heat are watching the younger James and have even gone to his games to take notes.
As of right now, Bronny’s USC coach Andy Enfield is pleased with both his growth and form.
Enfield told ESPN, “The young man went through a medical situation this summer that was very difficult and challenging.” “Bronny James is an excellent teammate who lacks ego. Because all he wants is to improve, he is a pleasure to train. You seem to see it, I believe. He is also improving.
