Episode The Lakers Supporting Cast Has Been Excellent. Will it Continue?
The Lakers have started 3-0, and no question, much of that is due to the play of Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, along with (Sunday notwithstanding) Walker Kessler. But one consistent factor over the first three games has been steady contributions from the supporting cast. Whether the "other" two starters (Ziaire Williams, Matisse Thybulle) or the bench players (Sandro Mamukelashvili, Quentin Grimes, Collin Sexton, Jake LaRavia) there has been meaningful, consistent production from the collective every night.
Given how awful the team's bench was productivity wise last year -- by any metric, they had one of the biggest drop offs from starting to bench units in the league last year -- this is a huge development. It's also an early validation of the offseason blueprint.
Will it hold? There's a good chance it will. Or should, even, assuming folks stay healthy.
