Bronny James playing with LeBron James is epic, there’s no other way for me to describe it.

No back down in LA’s Austin Reaves: quickly earned the trust of his teammates and the coaching staff through clutch play and sharp attention to detail on both ends.

To say Lonnie Walker IV “stayed ready” is a total understatement. After putting up 12 points in Game 3, he followed it up with a quarter for the ages in Game 4: scored ALL 15 of his points in the 4th to boost LAL to a commanding, 3-1 lead against the Golden State Warriors.

Rui Hachimura’s made a big difference off LAL’s bench since arriving in January.

In Year 20, LeBron James continues to set the standard for sustained greatness at the highest level.

The play of Austin Reaves has been a tremendous bright spot for the LA Lakers over the last couple of seasons.

Anthony Davis is in the midst of an historic stretch - he’s truly dominated over the few weeks.

Last night, LeBron reached his 900th! career victory & also passed Magic Johnson for 6th place on the NBA’s All-Time Assists leaderboard.

LEBRON IS A LAKER!

LeBron James is a transcendent athlete (legend) in the sport of basketball – the pure definition of DIFFERENT BREED: no one has ever possessed LeBron’s unique combination of size, speed, and skill into a single package.

Featuring ‘created player’ size, length and speed, Anthony Davis reps the new generation of bigs – DIFFERENT BREED-level talent.

“Smooth meets confidence” – the best way to summarize D’Angelo Russell’s game.

No back down in LA’s Austin Reaves: quickly earned trust of his teammates and the coaching staff through clutch play and sharp attention to detail on both ends.

LA’s 17th pick in 2023, Jalen Hood-Schifino is hoping to earn the unofficial title of: “LA’s SG of the Future.”

Laker fans are hoping Max Christie’s a long-term solution at the 2/3 spot: Christie’s game features so much promise.

Gabe Vincent’s value is at an all-time high: headstrong PG, capable from anywhere beyond the arc.

Jaxson Hayes is an incredible athlete at the 5 spot - catch & finisher/rim protector.

Cam Reddish is a 6’8 wing who trends towards defense.

A Native of Japan, Rui Hachimura’s game is offense-oriented.

Christian Wood’s a skilled big w/ varied skill on offense.

Jarred Vanderbilt possesses lots of natural talent & athleticism, yet hustles & values dirty work.
