JJ Redick is known for being a bit obsessed with basketball, and he just confirmed it again.
Dedication at the Car Wash:
Before the Lakers’ recent game, Baron Davis shared a funny story. He saw Redick at a car wash watching basketball films on his laptop. Davis tweeted about it, calling Redick a “players coach” and praising his dedication.

The Reason Behind It:
Redick explained that back-to-back games made him take his work everywhere, even to places like a car wash. He said he was wrapping up details from one game while preparing for another. Though he admitted this isnโt normal behavior, he found it efficient.
Fans love how dedicated Redick is to improving the team!
Lakers’ Strong Start:
Under Redick’s guidance, the Lakers have started strong this season with three straight wins against teams like the Suns and Kings. This marks their best start since 2010-11 and makes Redick their most successful new coach since Bill Sharman in 1971-72.
The team has shown resilience by overcoming big deficits in games, which is quite different from their struggles last year to finish games strong.
Upcoming Challenges:
Next up for the Lakers is an 11-day road trip with five games against tough teams like the Suns and Cavaliers. Their first challenge on this trip will be facing off against Phoenix on Monday night.
Good luck to them!
