JJ Redick says he will stagger minutes of Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves

Lakers coach JJ Redick says he will always have either Luka Doncic or Austin Reaves on the court during games.

The Los Angeles Lakers have recently made a move by acquiring star players Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, who are both exceptional scorers and playmakers. With James now on the Philadelphia 76ers, the Lakers are in a strong position regarding offensive abilities. Coach JJ Redick plans to strategically stagger the minutes of Doncic and Reaves, relying on other talented players to support the team's offense.

Redick mentioned that players like Collin Sexton, Quentin Grimes, Bronny James, Jaden Hardy, and potentially Bronny could fill this role. The Lakers' training camp has been competitive, and this depth could present challenges for determining the starting lineup. Sexton is expected to play a significant role off the bench, while Grimes is considered a strong candidate for a starting position. James and Hardy will vie for spots on the team's bench.
