The Lakers’ preseason action has highlighted an exciting roster mix. Bronny James has made waves, proving he can compete at the NBA level, and Dalton Knecht’s impressive performances are making it hard for Redick to leave him out of the rotation. Redick’s fresh approach centers on defensive tenacity, and he’s relying on Austin Reaves to step up in bigger moments. With veteran stars like LeBron James and Anthony Davis, this youthful spark could give the Lakers the depth they need to contend this season.
