The Lakers may have caught an extra wind of energy. It goes beyond daylight savings time kicking in on early Sunday morning. Coach Byron Scott also reported reducing the length of Sunday’s morning shootaround amid players’ feedback that their fatigue could stem from his overbearing training camp and lengthy practices.
“I’ve played this game before so you can come to me and talk to me about anything,” Scott said Sunday morning at the Lakers’ practice facility in El Segundo. “I’ll take it all into consideration.”
But it remains to be seen how much Scott will adjust his practice time, including whether he reduces his conditioning-heavy drills.
