Can the Lakers stars guide Cam Reddish to a meaningful role on the team?

ORLANDO —

This was never a problem for Anthony Davis.

Opportunity was always there, a former No. 1 overall pick selected to be the face of a franchise, a superstar-in-training since the day he entered the NBA. The role was always clear — the questions were few.

For Cam Reddish, the 10th pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, the situation was different.

Yeah, the Atlanta Hawks had invested a lottery pick in the talented, multi-positional prospect from Duke, but the path was a little murkier. By the next season, he was traded to the New York Knicks and a year after that he was dealt again, this time to Portland.
