Austin Reaves on Luka Doncic’s one-legged 3s that he breaks out from time to time: “I told him, ‘It’s a blessing but every now and then it’s a curse to think you can make every shot’”

Deandre Ayton describes connecting with Luka Doncic on their first lob together: “I have to be patient and just really reading his eyes … but rolling fast at the same time, putting pressure on that big.” He marveled at some of the passes Luka made.

Luka Doncic on seeing Dallas on the Lakers’ preseason schedule tomorrow: “I mean, it’s obviously going to be something. Obviously I’m going to feel something every game I play against them. I am kind of starting a new chapter here … but … it’s always going to be something”

Lakers’ starters vs. Dallas: Gabe Vincent Dalton Knecht Jarred Vanderbilt Rui Hachimura Jaxson Hayes

JJ Redick says the starters tonight are Knecht, Hachimura, Vanderbilt, Hayes and Vincent. Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, Deandre Ayton, Jake LaRavia and Marcus Smart are out for rest. Bronny James tweaked his ankle in PHX and is also out.

JJ Redick said the thing he’s most encouraged about right now is that the on-court communication is “miles ahead” of where it was at this time last year. He said that builds trust, and it’s hard to play this sport without trust.

"It's all about sustainability. It's all about building that consistency on both ends of the floor." JJ speaks with Mike Trudell and the media prior to the #Lakers preseason matchup with the Dallas Mavericks in Las Vegas.

JJ Redick said that the Lakers will use Friday’s preseason finale against Sacramento as a dress rehearsal with their full healthy rotation. He said the Lakers will likely have a similar rotation to Dallas tonight (most of the rotation playing deep into third/early fourth).
