The Lakers also are expected to sign restricted free agent Max Christie. Christie, 21, is said to have interest from rival teams, though the Lakers can match any offer he receives. -via Los Angeles Times / June 29, 2024
As Pelinka did with Hurley, he still wants a teaching coach and staff who will prioritize the development of young players such as Max Christie, Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura and can design a creative approach to featuring Anthony Davis on both ends of the floor, sources said. Redick has a strong relationship with Lakers star LeBron James, with whom he co-hosts a basketball podcast. -via ESPN / June 20, 2024
Beyond the 21st overall pick in the June draft, the Lakers have a young core of Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura and Max Christie that management believes could show even greater improvement under Hurley’s coaching, sources said. -via ESPN / June 7, 2024
