Ham’s statement reads: “He’s completely healthy, he looks exceptional, almost like the LeBron of his third or fourth year in the league.”
Ham’s comment is generating substantial buzz on social media platforms.
As Coach Ham embarks on his second season with the Lakers, LeBron James is set to begin his sixth season with the franchise.
Last season, the Lakers faced a challenging start but underwent significant roster changes at the trade deadline, leading to a transformation in their performance.
They concluded the season as the seventh seed in the Western Conference, boasting a 43-39 record. They secured a spot in the NBA playoffs by defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves in the play-in tournament.
In the playoffs, the Lakers achieved victories against the Memphis Grizzlies (the second seed) and the reigning 2022 NBA Champions, the Golden State Warriors, before experiencing a sweep at the hands of Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.
LeBron James and the Lakers are gearing up for their first preseason matchup against the Warriors, scheduled for Saturday night at the Chase Center in San Francisco.
Simultaneously, their inaugural regular-season game is set for October 24 when they face the 2023 NBA Champion Nuggets at Ball Arena in Denver.
