Lakers Rebuild Under Redick | Los Angeles Lakers News

LeBron’s gone, and the Lakers are rebooting under JJ Redick with Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves as the new engine — but can they build chemistry fast enough to compete? Dončić controls the offense, Reaves exploits defenses when they collapse, and Walker Kessler’s rim-protecting presence (at a steep draft cost) adds spacing and defense. Depth players like Grimes, Sexton, and Looney give Redick flexibility, but balancing shooting, size, and defense — especially on the second unit — is the real test. This season’s success won’t be measured in wins alone, but in cohesion, health, and whether this revamped roster can hold up against elite competition.
