The Los Angeles Lakers formed one of the best teams in the NBA last season, pairing LeBron James and Luka Doncic.
Los Angeles traded for Doncic ahead of the deadline, dealing one of their biggest contributors, Anthony Davis, to the Dallas Mavericks.
Despite having one of the most talented teams in the league, with James, Doncic, Austin Reaves and company, the Lakers were booted early in the postseason.
They suffered a first-round exit to the Minnesota Timberwolves, capping off their season early in the playoffs.
After the season, as LeBron James prepares for his 23rd year in the NBA and Luka Doncic gets ready to take the court for his second season with the Lakers, the two announced a collaboration off the court.
James reposted an announcement on Doncic that revealed the former Mavericks star will be the next guest of his podcast “Mind the Game,” co-hosted by NBA legend Steve Nash.
The Lakers star added the eye emojis to his response, seemingly adding suspense after the announcement was made.
LeBron James previously hosted the “Mind the Game” podcast with JJ Redick, but the latter’s role was then vacated after taking over as the Los Angeles Lakers head coach.
James has mentioned that he’s used the podcast to freely speak his mind on the game he loves and walk through footage or plays from the season, giving fans his perspective on the game of basketball.
During his 22nd season in the NBA, LeBron James posted 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game.
Luka Doncic finished the season with 28.2 points, 8.2 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game in two teams.
