About this episode
The episode discusses Luka Doncic's injury treatment plans, JJ Redick's job status, and the Lakers' approach to resigning LeBron James.
Luka Doncic is reportedly flying to Spain to get treatment on his injury to try to come back sooner, maybe even the 1st or 2nd Round of the Playoffs, so Andy and the crew wondered if this is the best course of action for Luka. Also, calls on JJ Redick's job status. Then, Andy talked about the Summer in how the Lakers can approach trying to resign LeBron. Plus, "Crunch Time" with a guess where the "Greek Freak" will be at in a few months. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
