Here is a breakdown of the biggest takeways from the Kupchak’s interview.
On Success
When asked about what success meant for the Lakers this season Kupchak was very candid in his response. The list is as follows:
- To stay healthy
- For Kobe Bryant to have a great year
- For their young players to prosper and show promise
- For Roy Hibbert to have an All-Star year
While he made sure to mention that winning a championship is always the goal, it is interesting to see Kupchak admit that the Lakers are actively building for the future.
