Max Christie plans to play for duration of Lakers’ summer league schedule.

“I’m gonna say I’ll play the rest of them and I’m not going to say Wednesday’s my last game,” Christie told the Southern California News Group after Tuesday afternoon’s practice. “It could always change. I want to play as many games as possible, but a lot of the time it’s not necessarily up to me. If management decides they want to shut me down then we can do that. If not, I always want to keep playing.

He's currently averaging 18.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4 assists per game and is shooting 60% from three.

Beautiful form

Normal Off-season GM s***

Desperate times I'll tell ya.....

Next thing Saturn gonna want Jeanie to walk Figueroa to buy out Mo from his contact

Kelly Oubre at center is crazy talk

"He meditates. He breathes...He's in the cold tub every day up to his chest. No 20 year old is doing that," said second year teammate Cole Swider, a two way contract player who's been with Christie throughout his time with the G league and the Lakers.

"So he does everything it takes to be successful -- almost too much sometimes. He wants to get in the gym too much. I'm like Max, you gotta chill out bro, You got it."

Reaves - Christie - Bron - Rui - Davis

Spark Plugs DLo and Vincent off the bench

Swider telling on himself

nah but really though lol

eh, i'd prefer d lo starting to take load off lebron having to to be the second ball handler, pause. but that's a great closing lineup though

That’s true

This isn’t the same Lebron we won a championship starting two SG’s with

Lakers have a game against the Celtics tonight at 10:00pm EST / 7:00pm PT

Relax

If Lebron wasn’t a grandpa that lineup would be crazy

Christie a starter bro? Really?

Damn don’t tell me you’re late to the party

I’ve been a Christie supporter all year but you trippin lmao

This thread has two speeds

1. Guy plays like butt once and he needs to get traded

2. Guy plays well in summer league and now he needs to start

If we a championship contender Max Christie will not be a starter lol. He might get some time off the bench but he ain’t playing over D’Lo or Gabe

I was laughed at last off season for saying Reaves should start ahead of Nunn

@ youngfashioned @ the villain

who the hell thought Kendrick Nunn should start?

It does make sense now that Lebron is old as s*** that we should have a better ball handler than Christie in there

Ima hold strong that it should be Vincent though

Max still developing man. For now you gotta trust the dependable players. If Max plays his way into the rotation or even the starting lineup he will have to earn it during the season. Not summer league lol
