Overview

  • The Lakers’ official training camp roster lists Luka Dončić at 6-foot-7 and 244 pounds after an offseason body transformation.
  • Dončić summed up his first full Lakers camp as “Fun. Excitement. Hard,” with JJ Redick emphasizing conditioning and a measured workload following EuroBasket.
  • Mavericks camp photos of Anthony Davis prompted fan comments about him appearing heavier than last season.
  • Davis told reporters he intentionally reports to camp above his playing weight, said he has already dropped about five pounds, and expects to settle near 255–258 by November.
  • Davis will wear protective goggles on his doctor’s advice after offseason retinal repair, and he said he has no restrictions entering the season.
