There was no doubt that the team was “aggressive” this past trade deadline and wants Doncic to remain satisfied so that there is no drama if he will or won’t sign an extension with the team come the 2026 offseason.</p><p>“A wild week for the franchise, with one team source describing the Lakers’ approach as “aggressive,” became more of a half measure,” McMenamin wrote. “The culmination of perhaps the most chaotic, transformational trade deadline in Lakers history has left the team failing in its first attempt to satisfy Doncic — ever aware that he will become a free agent in 2026 and that L.A. wants to make his decision to sign a contract extension a foregone conclusion — and failing to maximize James’ 22nd season by ultimately not obtaining a big that Pelinka admitted the roster was lacking.”</p><p>However, a team source told McMenamin that they might have “dodged a bullet” as Los Angeles gets back Knecht, Reddish, and a 2031 first-round pick.</p><p>“The team’s ability to pivot from Williams will be critical for this group’s chances, and limiting the fallout will allow L.A. to restore the momentum it has been building in the short term,” McMenamin wrote. “As for the long term, without Williams but with Knecht and the 2031 first-round pick? “That was a lot [to give up],” a team source said. ‘We kind of dodged a bullet.'”</p><p>The Lakers are 31-19, which puts them fifth in the West entering the game against the Jazz on Monday.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-la-hornets-game-postponed-wildfires">Lakers’ game against the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday was postponed</a> due to the ongoing wildfires in California. But should the Lakers’ matchup against the Spurs proceeds, they’ll get a boost in the rotation. Cam Reddish is set to return to the lineup <a href="https://x.com/Dave_Yapkowitz/status/1877897642182922499">after not appearing</a> on the Lakers’ injury report ahead of the game.</p><p>Cam Reddish missed the Lakers’ loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday after suffering a back injury sustained against the Houston Rockets in the game prior to that. He was listed as questionable for the Lakers-Hornets matchup, but with that game being postponed, it appears the extra time off has helped Reddish.</p><p>LeBron James and Anthony Davis were both listed as probable, and their status for the Spurs game isn’t in doubt. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-lebron-james-makes-worrying-admission-on-lingering-foot-injury">James is dealing with an ongoing foot issue</a>, while <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-anthony-davis-breaks-silence-injury-scare-warriors">Davis is monitoring an ankle injury</a> sustained during the Lakers’ Christmas Day win against the Golden State Warriors.</p><h2><b>Cam Reddish’s role with Lakers</b></h2><p>Reddish is in his second season with the Lakers after signing as a free agent during the 2023 offseason, and he’s been a steady player this year under new head coach JJ Redick.</p><p>When Redick opted to move D’Angelo Russell to the bench earlier this season, it was Reddish he turned to, to join the starting lineup. And now, following the trade for Dorian Finney-Smith, along with Max Christie, the Lakers have a couple of intriguing defensive lineups they can throw out on the court.</p><p>Reddish has appeared in 28 games for the Lakers this season, including eight starts, at a little over 18 minutes per game. He’s been averaging 3.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals with splits of 44.9 percent shooting from the field, 29.3 percent shooting from the three-point line and 61.9 percent shooting from the free-throw line.</p><p>The former Duke standout was originally selected by the Atlanta Hawks with the No. 10 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. While at Duke, he starred alongside Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett, both of whom were also selected in the same draft at No. 1 and No. 3, respectively.</p><p>Reddish’s career includes stints with the New York Knicks and Portland Trail Blazers. He was once more of a scorer, especially during his early days with the Hawks, but <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-cam-reddish-sobering-take-star-role-lakers">Reddish has adapted his game</a> to fit in as a consistent role player.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is a credentialed reporter based in Los Angeles who covers the NBA/WNBA, NCAA/NCAAW and boys/girls high school basketball.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Los Angeles Lakers</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Lakers returned home on Friday with a 116-106 win against the Philadelphia 76ers and with a major change in the starting lineup. Head coach JJ Redick opted to move Cam Reddish into the starting lineup with <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-dangelo-russell-mindset-move-to-bench">D’Angelo Russell moving to the bench</a>. It’s a role that Cam Reddish has played before last season when Darvin Ham was still Lakers head coach.</p><p>Following the Lakers’ win against the Sixers, Redick praised Cam Reddish for making a major impact while only taking one shot, and called him a star in his role.</p><p>When Reddish was initially drafted by the Atlanta Hawks with the No. 10 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, he was a double digit scorer. He averaged 11.1 points across three seasons with the Hawks. But with the Lakers, they don’t necessarily need him to be a scorer.</p><p>They need him to be a scoring threat, by means of moving off ball and knocking down catch and shoot threes, but they aren’t going to put the ball in his hands and have him create. He’s more valuable to the Lakers as a defensive disruptor. It’s a role that Reddish hasn’t always been accustomed to.</p><p>“Every team is different, every coach is different. I just go out there and do what he tells me to do. My past life, I was out there doing what I wanted to do. That doesn’t necessarily work all the time,” Reddish said during a media availability session on Saturday. “Be a star in my role, do what I can to help the team win. Whether that’s one shot, five shots, ten shots, I just try to go out there and impact the game.”</p><p>Agains the Sixers, Reddish finished with three points, knocking down his only shot, a three-pointer, five rebounds, two assists, one steal and one blocked shot in 28 minutes.</p><h2><b>Cam Reddish’s impact for the Lakers</b></h2><p>Since coming into the NBA, Cam Reddish has kind of bounced around from the Hawks to the New York Knicks and the Portland Trail Blazers. The Lakers are his fourth team in six seasons.</p><p>According to Reddish, part of what contributed to him not quite being able to find a home in the league was his mindset. It can be tough for players to adjust to the NBA and playing a role when they’re used to having the ball in their hands in both high school and college.</p><p>“I was getting the ball all the time, I didn’t know anything else. I was forced to kind of learn and expand my game,” Reddish said. “It doesn’t happen overnight, but little by little I started getting better at it. I feel like all my years helped me to get to this point. . .everything I’ve been through, everything I’ve dealt with, has kind of guided me to this point.”</p><p>Reddish joined the Lakers as a free agent in the 2023 offseason. It was a two-year contract at the veteran’s minimum with a player option in the second year that he exercised. He started out the 2024-25 season dealing with ankle issues and was away for a brief period due to personal reasons.</p><p>But he’s back now, in the lineup and ready to help the Lakers this season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Lakers are bringing in roughly the same roster that advanced to the Western Conference finals two seasons ago, and which underperformed last year. Still, Cam Reddish seems optimistic about this new season under JJ Redick, which he told reporters during Lakers Media Day.</p><p>“I’m not one to compare but it’s been really detail-oriented so far,” Reddish said, via <a href="https://x.com/JacobRude/status/1840836930293977572" rel="noopener">a post</a> from Jacob Rude on X, formerly Twitter.</p><h2>New beginnings for Lakers</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Cam-Reddish-dunking.jpg"><figcaption>© Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The disappointing loss to the Denver Nuggets in the first round of last season’s playoffs capped off an underwhelming season for the team. While the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/los-angeles-lakers-in-season-tournament-championship-indiana-pacers-lebron-james-anthony-davis-mvp">Lakers won the inaugural NBA Cup</a>, they had played an up-and-down season that saw them play like contenders one day and bottom-feeders the next.</p><p>Despite the team preaching consistency, ex-head coach Darvin Ham also inexplicably didn’t play the starting lineup that went 23-10 and advanced to the Conference Finals, ruining any chance to establish team identity and chemistry.</p><p>For instance, Ham sat Austin Reaves on the bench despite having earned a starting spot. Likewise, Ham also benched D’Angelo Russell after slumping in December 2023.</p><p>Fans and the front office expected the Lakers’ new additions like Cam Reddish, Taurean Prince, and Christian Wood to make an immediate impact, but injuries and wonky lineups hampered their contributions. Moreover, Gabe Vincent sat out most of the season due to injury.</p><p>During the offseason, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-jj-redick-hired-head-coach-after-dan-hurley-fiasco">Lakers hired JJ Redick</a> after whiffing on UCONN coach Dan Hurley. They also <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-2024-nba-draft-grade-for-bronny-james">drafted Bronny James</a> and Dalton Knecht, among other two-way deals like <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-christian-koloko-six-word-message-after-la-move">signing ex-Raptor Christian Koloko</a>.</p><p>Additionally, Reddish, Wood, and Vincent have <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10115259-nba-rumors-lakers-cam-reddish-exercises-25m-contract-option-for-2024-25-season#:~:text=Cam%20Reddish%20is%20returning%20to,according%20to%20ESPN's%20Dave%20McMenamin." rel="noopener">returned to the team</a> in the offseason. Though Wood underwent knee surgery, Vincent and Reddish seem good to go.</p><p>Fans should hope that the players’ and coaches’ optimism around Lakers Media Day should translate to a system that works, and to wins in the regular season and beyond.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
