Lakers Win Season Opener Under Coach JJ Redick
News summary

The Los Angeles Lakers began their 2024-25 NBA season with a victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, highlighted by the historic debut of LeBron James and his son Bronny playing together. New head coach JJ Redick, transitioning from broadcasting to coaching, led the team to break a five-year streak of season-opener losses. Despite skepticism due to his lack of coaching experience, Redick has surrounded himself with seasoned advisors, drawing parallels to Steve Kerr’s successful coaching transition. The Lakers' win revealed areas for improvement, including poor three-point shooting and Gabe Vincent's underwhelming performance. Redick's strategy emphasizes process over immediate results, focusing on strategic adjustments to keep the Lakers competitive. As one of eight teams with new coaches this season, the Lakers, under Redick, are navigating expectations in a league where coaching changes are frequent.
