Training camp for the 2023-24 NBA season is slowly but surely approaching. While there is plenty of time before it begins, it’s time for players to start ramping up their training and preparation.
That’s especially true for the Los Angeles Lakers, who are hoping to win their 18th world championship next summer. They magically remade what was a broken roster in January and February, and now they’re aiming for the sky rather than just trying to tread water.
One player that helped them remake their roster is Rui Hachimura. He arrived in a late January trade, and despite playing inconsistently during the regular season, he came up big in L.A.’s unexpected playoff run to the Western Conference finals.
Armed with a new contract, Hachimura should focus on these three goals to help the Lakers win it all this season.
