Max Christie has helped the Los Angeles Lakers turn their 2024-25 season around since being re-inserted into the starting lineup.
Christie has been a reliable floor spacer and perimeter defender, providing some balance and stability for head coach JJ Redick. Christie’s newfound confidence has given the Lakers a huge boost on both ends of the floor and should continue to start going forward.
What makes Christie even more viable as the starting two guard is Austin Reaves’ development as Los Angeles’ full-time point guard. LeBron James still has his share of touches, but Reaves has become the primary playmaker on the team and Anthony Davis recently expressed confidence in him.
