The Los Angeles Lakers are going to be shorthanded to start the 2025-26 season with LeBron James sidelined, meaning players like Gabe Vincent are in line for bigger roles.
Vincent is coming off a solid year for the Lakers, but stepped up in the preseason for the Lakers as both a bench player and starter.
In Los Angeles’ final preseason game, head coach JJ Redick named Vincent as one of the starters and he responded with 14 points on 5-of-6 shooting in including 4-of-5 from the 3-point line.
After preseason action concluded, Vincent discussed how he approached the offseason.
