So without him to control the tempo, I think this could be a problem for the Los Angeles Lakers.
I mean, you think Luka's going to play at all in this series?
No.
He's been ruled out for game one.
They say it's week to week, and like I said, ESPN is reporting a slow path to recovery.
Yeah, I think this is a big spot for A.J.
Mitchell because you could consider J.J.
Redick an X-factor.
The dude's a good coach.
He's going to make it weird at the very least for Shea Gilgis-Alexander.
If the Lakers are somehow able to turn him into a playmaker or just he's trying to get the ball out of his hands, that means Mitchell has a lot more chances to be a creator, waive bigger opportunity.
And like you're saying, he didn't play all that great as a starter.
One good game, one bad game.
Shot 36% for the Sears.
We don't really know about Jalen Williams.
He's still considered a week to week at this point, no sort of updates on him.
So opportunities, certainly for AJ Mitchell on the Laker side of things, I think really is a big time X factor here.
Cause either he or LeBron is going to have a size advantage against the thunder starting lineup.
I don't know if LeBron has ever been picked as an X factor in any playoff series, but
but so I couldn't go for him.
