James will be missing the Warriors! Scream + Snap Response is already the oldest active Hamm finalizes the starting fifth

On October 6, Beijing time, the Lakers ushered in the third day of training camp, James revealed that he will not play in the preseason opening game against the Warriors, and he played at least 3 of the 6 preseason games. Coach Hamm has revealed that he has finalized his starting fifth, but will still try different line-up combinations.

James, who is about to turn 39, will certainly not be fully committed to preseason. In an interview, he made it clear that he would not play in the Lakers' first preseason game against the Warriors. During training, hearing that he was the oldest player on the active roster, James screamed in response, and then the camera turned around, energetic and one-handed to catch the dunk.

"Six pre-season games and I hope to play at least half of them. Let's wait and see, I think every game will decide that, I'm not going to play on Saturday (local time, against the Warriors), that's for sure and we'll see after that," James said.

After the training, James and Hachimura stayed to practice. Speaking about his relationship with the young striker, James: "Hachimura is the only teammate I've been training with this summer, and the two of us have traveled together a few times this summer. It seems that James is very optimistic about Hachimura, and Hachimura also said that he will have some adjustments in the new season and attack the basket more.

"I know I have mid-range shots, but I'm trying to be more aggressive at the basket and I've been practicing... My body is stronger, my footwork is more, and I want to get more easy scores. ”

James also spoke about Embiid's commitment to play in the Olympics for Team USA. James said: "That's great, it's great for us! I've been paying attention to these, and that's the most important thing. But now my focus is on the Lakers, and I'm looking forward to seeing the U.S. Olympic roster next summer. Still, James declined to say whether Embiid called him after the decision.

Coach Hamm told reporters that the Lakers have finalized a fifth man to start the new season, after James, Thick Eyebrows, Reeves and Russell have been confirmed to enter the starting lineup. However, Hamm also sold a deal, and he does not plan to reveal the starting fifth man now. Earlier, team member Jovan Buha said that the candidate will be selected between Hachimura, Vanderbilt and Prince.

In today's training, Russell also turned the football upside down on the field and showed off his footwork for a while. The first preseason game between the Lakers and Warriors will be played at 8:30 a.m. Beijing time on October 8.
