Report: LeBron James And Anthony Davis To Slide Over to Four, Five

The Los Angeles Lakers are entering the new season with a brand new roster. The coaching staff is also revamped. A lot of new names joined the franchise and everyone is so ready to move on. LeBron James and Anthony Davis will be leading the team and they will even slide to different positions to make everything work.

This change was really needed at this point. The Los Angeles Lakers traded for Russell Westbrook and the front office had to make some changes.

The Big 3 met in LeBron’s home over dinner. They talked about their future roles with the team. The equation changed and AD may go see some time at center. Westbrook will have to let LeBron take the lead role. This is the sacrifice everyone has to make to make the NBA Finals in the postseason.

LeBron’s agent confirmed that the team will make changes, pushing LeBron and AD to four and five.

NBA insiders Jake Fischer and Harrison Faigen discussed Paul’s revelation that will change the 2021-22 roster.

LeBron and Davis to slide to other positions for a reason

Seeing AD at center doesn’t come as a surprise at this point. He played this position during his time with the New Orleans Pelicans. The big man saw time on the same position with the Lakers on several occasions. It seems like the team will make this a permanent change. If AD ends up playing center, Dwight Howard and DeAndre Jordan will see a huge challenge. They will get less minutes on the floor.

What about LeBron? He may go to power forward. This is definitely the biggest surprise at the moment. King James is the primary playmaker. If the Lakers make this change, he will have less playmaking duties. Westbrook’s signing has a big say in the process. Broddie will take over the starting point guard position in the upcoming season.

The Lakers will do whatever it takes to get things going. Players will have to swallow their egos and do the best for the franchise. Switch positions? Why not? It’s all for the greater good.
