The Los Angeles Lakers are tearing through Summer League and a lot of credit has to go to the incredible chemistry between Lonzo Ball and Kyle Kuzma. This episode of the LN Podcast digs into both rookies and how they are finding success with their on-court connection.

Plus, we take fan questions about the Lakers need for three point shooting and discuss why big free agent signing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is a perfect fit for Luke Walton, who will need his talents on both the offensive and defensive end of the floor.

Finally, we dive into Ivica Zubac’s puzzling summer struggles and go a little crazy of just how good Brandon Ingram looked in his lone performance. All that and more on the latest episode of the LN Podcast:
