The Los Angeles Lakers and head coach JJ Redick emphasized player development over the offseason and guards like Quincy Olivari could find themselves in the organization’s long-term plans after a strong preseason showing.
Olivari hasn’t played for the Lakers during the 2024-25 season after earning a two-way contract but is developing behind the scenes with the South Bay Lakers. Redick said the organization is happy to have Olivari, and it might be a matter of time before he gets a call up.
The undrafted guard made an impression on the team during preseason when he went off for 22 points against the Golden State Warriors.
