Description

For once, Lakers Media Day didn’t feel like damage control. No coaching hot seat. No “trade everybody” chatter. No chaos about roster overhauls. Instead, the vibe was calm, confident, and focused — a clean reset button in L.A.

JJ Redick set the tone with a brand-new extension and talk of “standards.” LeBron James admitted the finish line is “sooner than later,” while making it clear the process still fuels him. Luka Dončić promised better conditioning and real defensive effort as he enters his first full season with the Lakers.

Ricky and Kwame break down how different this Media Day felt, what it means for the Lakers’ identity in Year 2, and how the rest of the league set their tone. Plus — the guys play a round of “Who He Play For” with the latest camp signings and roster shakeups.
