JJ Redick praises duo’s fiery chemistry
Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves are powering the Lakers’ offense early in the 2025–26 season, thriving without LeBron James. Coach JJ Redick says the guards click because both are fierce competitors who love a bit of banter—basically, the NBA’s loudest study group in trash talk.
Reaves’ 51-pointer and Doncic’s near-50 show how well they share the spotlight, driving optimism that this backcourt can soar even higher as the season rolls on.
