LeBron Discusses Tyson Chandler’s Impact On The Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers added veteran center Tyson Chandler to their roster, and this was their lucky move. Chandler helped them win three straight games, and he had a huge role in each of them. NBA fans will never forget his game-securing block on Trae Young in the final seconds of the game between his team and the Atlanta Hawks.
LeBron James talked to reporters about Chandler and his impact on the game.

“He’s huge. We had a spot that needed some reassurance, and for us to be able to get Tyson in the fashion that we got him and to be able to implement him in right away, and the impact that he’s made in these three games is great,” LeBron said.

King James was also impressed by the veteran’s block on Young. “To make a game-winning block, you don’t see that much in our league. You see a lot of game-winning shots, you see a lot of game-winning assists, but for you to see a game-winning defensive block like that, you don’t see that much in our league. So for him to go up there and get that on a guy that is shooting a floater, and time it perfectly, we were all excited about that,” he said.

Chandler appreciates every moment he has with his new teammates on the floor. He needed the right chemistry and atmosphere for his talent, and the Lakers gave him an excellent ground.

“I still get excited by every single win, especially this team is a group of incredible guys, a mixture of veterans that I’ve competed against my entire career and then young guys that I’m growing to appreciate. It’s just every single moment out there that we get an opportunity to grow, I know what it’s going to take for the end of the year. So again, just trying to cherish every one of those moments and trying to grow at the same time,” Chandler said.
