JJ Redick claims LA Lakers bench star can win ‘multiple playoff games’, he played 0 minutes vs Warriors

JJ Redick lauded a young star on the Los Angeles Lakers who can make a big impact for them, despite not playing him in their last game.

The Los Angeles Lakers turned things around, winning a massive game against the New Orleans Pelicans .

It was by no means a stellar performance from them.

In fact, Lakers fans demanded that their team perform better despite the win.

The Lakers seemed to get frustrated during their game against the Warriors.

In fact, Luka Doncic and LeBron James went at one young Warriors star for their trash talk.

Perhaps a young star who didnt get a chance to shine against the Warriors could have made a better impact for them and even gotten them a win.

JJ Redick on Lakers trios chemistry But what about the superstars on the team? JJ Redick spoke on the chemistry of LeBron James , Luka Doncic , and Austin Reaves .

He noted that the trio has a lot of room to grow when it comes to playing together.

And he expects them to develop that chemistry in good time.

Theres a lot of room to grow.

Particularly, just with understanding what works for us.

Thats the biggest thing.

The trio definitely had a good game, as they combined for 92 of the Lakers 124 points against the New Orleans Pelicans.

The hope is that they can replicate these performances in the playoffs.

"I think he's just playing with a very high level of confidence right now." JJ Redick speaks to @LakersReporter and the media about Austin Reaves' impact as of late.

The rookie dropped 12 points in a decent shooting night after not playing against the Warriors.

Despite the snub in the previous game, he had high praise for Knecht, noting that he could be a key piece in their upcoming playoff run.

We feel like hes a guy who can help us win a game in the playoffs.

Maybe multiple games.

Well, these words are definitely interesting, considering JJ Redick seemingly punished Dalton Knecht for his poor performances against the Orlando Magic .

He did not play a single minute in the loss to the Warriors.

Perhaps Knecht is out of the doghouse and is going to be featured more frequently on the Los Angeles Lakers.

This upcoming playoff run will be his platform to show his skills.
