Lakers Rumors: Ex-Athletic Training Official Calls Magic Johnson ‘Fear Monger’

With an incredibly important offseason approaching in which the Los Angeles Lakers could elevate themselves into championship contenders for the 2019-20 NBA season, they have been surrounded by nothing but drama.

Magic Johnson’s sudden resignation from his position has brought about a ton of questions and subsequent interviews have only further placed the Lakers in a negative light.

One issue that has come about regarding Johnson was his level of commitment to the job as he has a number of other businesses that need his attention. This reportedly kept him out of the office regularly and was something that he believes general manager Rob Pelinka would speak on behind his back, leading to allegations of backstabbing.
