The LA Lakers continue to make waves as they look to get their act together after an abysmal 2021-22 campaign. After failing to make the play-in tournament, the Lakers have their work cut out for them in the summer.
The headlines involve the Lakers' superstars LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Davis was seen working with Lethal Shooter, while Darvin Ham's hiring as head coach remained a talking point. Carmelo Anthony made the news as well.
With that said, here is the latest LA Lakers News Roundup for June 16, 2022.
Draymond Green calls LeBron James the smartest guy to play basketball
LA Lakers superstar LeBron James is widely considered to be the greatest player of all time. Draymond Green believes he is also the smartest player of all time, saying his basketball IQ is as good as it gets.
Speaking at a press conference, Green said:
"It doesn't compare to like mentally playing against LeBron James, who I think is arguably the smartest guy to ever play this game. To say that it compares to that, it's disrespectful to LeBron & it's a lie to you."
Carmelo Anthony seen working out with his son
LA Lakers talisman Carmelo Anthony made headlines this week after a video emerged of him working out with his son Kiyan Anthony. The 10-time All-Star was seen taking shots and going through some drills with his son.
While it isn't yet clear if Kiyan wants to follow in the footsteps of his father, having a Hall of Famer training him certainly helps.

The duo were seen practicing catch-and-shoot three-pointers, along with mid-range jumpers and turnaround jumpers. Melo's footwork is one of the finest in the game, and he's the perfect role model for Kiyan.
LeBron James voices his support for Anthony Davis
It is no secret that LA Lakers superstar Anthony Davis had the worst campaign of his career in 2021-22. "The Brow" played only 40 games, and averaged 23.2 points and 9.9 rebounds. He shot under 19% from the perimeter and below 72% from the line.
LeBron James took to social media to voice his support for his teammates. He believes that Davis will return better than ever. James posted a video of some of the best highlights of Davis and wrote:
"Get It Twisted if you want too! I'm due time he'll remind you once again why he's HIM!!! And I can't wait for it to be unleashed!"
