Anthony Davis expects to be “the guy” for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2024-25.

That role has previously belonged to LeBron James, but Davis said that new head coach J.J. Redick has prepared him to take on some of the offensive burden.

“[Redick] talked about me being the hub of the offense,” Davis said, per Ben Golliver of the Washington Post. “That will be different. We won’t know everything until [training] camp when we’re able to get on the floor. We want LeBron to shoot more threes. [Redick] wants to play fast and defend. From what he was telling me, I’m in total agreeance with what he has planned for us. … The goal at the end of the day is still to win a championship. You can’t skip steps.”
